This Luba figure on a decorative base celebrates beauty, spiritual presence, and cultural identity. Carved from wood, it features an elongated neck, a detailed face with traditional scarification, and a coiffure reflecting Luba artistry. The openwork base adds visual balance and depth, enhancing its decorative and symbolic impact.
