Vintage African Carved Wood Female Figure Statue

Discover the allure of African artistry with this striking vintage carved wooden female figure. Potentially representing a spirit spouse or ancestor figure in the West African tradition, possibly Baule style, this piece is rich in cultural character.

The figure is hand-carved from a dark wood, featuring traditional stylized details and a distinct textured pattern on the body or dress. It stands gracefully on an integral circular base.

Features:

• Authentic vintage African carving
• Stylized female form
• Textured body/dress detail
• Dark wood construction
• Integral circular base

Condition: Good vintage condition. The figure exhibits signs of age and character, including some rubbing and wear to the finish, particularly on the facial features, revealing lighter wood beneath, and minor scuffs consistent with a pre-loved piece. A small, lighter-coloured patch or natural wood variation is visible on the edge of the base. Please see photos for details.

Perfect for: Collectors of ethnographic art, enthusiasts of African culture, or as a unique and soulful decorative statement piece in your home or office. It adds a touch of global history and artistry to any space.

Please note: While this piece shares characteristics with traditional African carvings like Baule figures, its specific origin and age are unconfirmed. Sold as a decorative vintage item.
