Een fijn gesneden Congolese houten Kuba beker met twee hoofden en een donkerbruine patina, eerste helft 20ste eeuw

H 16 cm

This palm wine cup has two bowls, each in one of the two opposite-facing heads. The great balance of the composition and the delicacy of the faces make this cup a remarkable piece. The two heads each with scarification in relief about the face, cross-hatched coiffures, on circular flanged foot, carved geometric ornament at the junction of the two heads, glossy black patina.
