General Auction including Gold, Silver & Cars ( 14% Buyers Commission )
A vintage African Tribal carved ebony wood female figure, depicting a slender, stylized figure kneeling or seated with a decorative vessel balanced on her head. The sculpture is rendered in a dark, likely stained or naturally dark wood, exhibiting visible grain and tool marks, particularly on its rough-hewn base. A single gold-toned metal hoop earring adorns the figure’s right ear. The figure’s left arm is raised to steady the vessel, which features carved patterns, while her right hand rests on her hip or side. No discernible text, signatures, or specific maker’s marks are visible, though the underside of the base shows two shallow circular depressions.
Approximately 13 inches (33 cm) tall.
