Belonging to the Lobi ethnic group in Burkina Faso, this unique piece is made of bronze and has a beautiful patina. Its dimensions are 4.5" in width, 1.75" in depth, and 5.5" in height.
This stunning Lobi Bronze Bird/gold weight is crafted using the lost wax method, a traditional technique that involves creating a model in beeswax. The model is then encased in fine clay and heated, causing the wax to melt and leave behind channels for pouring molten metal. Once cooled, the mold is cracked open, revealing a one-of-a-kind piece.
