Description
Translate to:
A truly striking piece of African craftsmanship. This authentic, hand-carved sculpture was acquired in Sudan by my grandfather in the mid-20th century. Carved from solid ebony wood and carefully inlaid with genuine ivory dots, it reflects the traditional style of Sudanese tribal art, possibly influenced by Dinka or Nubian symbolism.
Material: Solid ebony with ivory inlay (not painted)
Origin: Sudan, Africa
Era: Estimated 1950s
Condition: Aged, with visible natural cracking in several areas — consistent with age and the dense nature of the materials. Structurally sound and stable.
This piece is not mass-produced. It’s a one-of-a-kind artifact with cultural significance, aged beautifully over the decades. It would make a stunning addition to any ethnographic art collection, vintage decor, or curated interior.
Price NOT negotiable. Buyer must meet at seller's location. No shipping.
