BAMILEKE, DOOR 2, 32", 38.5" with frame, $1000, Cameroon

The Bamileke are better known for their masks, stools and beadwork but the two small doors with doorframes are typical and are mounted about two feet off the ground. The door lifts out; its like the upper half of a "French" door.

Note: This door is not square and throws the doorframe offsquare as well.
