ICON STANDS, Ethiopia

Ethiopia has been a Christian nation since the 4th century. These wooden icons stands, which are meant to be displayed horizontally on a tabletop or shelf, are hand-carved and hand-painted with scenes from the gospels.

They all look like number 1 from the side.

These stands show little sign of age or use and were probably made to be sold.
