Beautiful colonial figure handcarved Africa. Ferny Hills
$65
In fabulous condition is this cool Colonial figure. Handmade from Africa. Looks to be carrying a tray with drinks?
Online research tells me that these African hand-carved wooden Colonial figures from the Ivory Coast, represent an unusual mix of African and European cultures. They are sculptured with everyday people and their jobs in mind. African colonial figures have become hugely sort after.
Each piece of Colonial art is individually handcrafted so no two will be exactly the same. This style of art is a modern take of everyday living and can be made from small pieces to almost life size pieces.
There are no two men or woman alike and they stand on their own. They also come in a large variety of colors and they are all dressed in βcolonial clothes.β The men either wear pith helmets (normally hand-carved by Christians) or Fez hats (mostly carved by Muslims.)
Pick this one up from Ferny Hills. Cash or bank transfer only please π π $85
