BAULE
Figure 43
19.5" high x 4" wide x 4.25" deep
$500 

Despite its appearance, this Baule figure shows no evidence of age or use and was probably made to be sold.

This figure exhibits the Baule love for fine detail and elegant carving. It exhibits a wonderful interplay of rounded forms.   The careful raised scarification designs contrast nicely with the smooth shiny skin.
