This Carved Sculpture would look exceptional while displayed in an array of interior styles. The solid ebony wood is carved throughout in a horn or "tusk" fashion. Around, you'll enjoy a series of tribal men, all of which appear to be climbing upon one another to reach the only female, who's shown along the top of the sculpture - Quite unique and likely attributed as a token of fertility. This piece is very solid and weighs just over 7lbs. The underside is unsigned or marked. See less
