This striking hand-carved bust is a masterful display of the natural edge or live edge technique, where the artisan utilizes the entire cross-section of the Ebony tree. The face and neck are meticulously polished to a deep, lustrous black from the dense heartwood, while the surrounding frame retains the raw, honey-toned sapwood and textured bark of the original log. Featuring elegant, stylized features and a detailed collar, this sculpture bridges the gap between traditional African folk art and Mid-Century Modern aesthetics. It serves as a sophisticated decorative object, perfect for adding organic texture and a soulful, global presence to a bookshelf, mantle, or side table.
It is in great vintage condition (marks and wear consistent with its age and history).
