Don't be fooled by what is referred to as tribal art, it is every bit as sophisticated as grand European master sculptors. This is a tall statuette, hand carved in ebonized wood with exquisite details. Her arms and legs are angular yet balanced, similar to Matisse's dance figurines. Her dress is a sheath sarong, and even though she appears to be carrying a heavy jug on her head, she does so with dignity and balance.
This piece is carved from a single piece of wood.
Measures 15.25" tall, 2.5" wide, 1.625" deep

Some of the ebonized finish appears to have faded in certain parts, and we are not sure whether this was strategic to show off angles of the sculpture, please see detailed images. less
