This door has been vetted as being authentic, but the surface designs may have been recarved later for sale. The doorlock here fits, but does not match the doors patina or wear. The doorlock has been vetted as authentic with significant age and use.

The Bamana people make and use doors that are somewhat similar to their neighbors, the Dogon. They are less well  known and usually less impressive. Their doorlocks are usually larger.
