This stunning Benin bronze figurine depicts a seated female holding a jar, measuring approximately 6 inches in height by 2.5" w by 2.5" d
A must-have for any collection, this piece represents the Benin Empire (1440-1897), a pre-colonial African nation situated in modern-day Nigeria. The use of inherited guilds in crafting this unique mid-20th-century example sets it apart, as each sculpture is individually hand-crafted and the mold is destroyed after the lost wax casting process, ensuring that no two pieces will ever be identical.
