(2) African Carved Wood Tribal Statues. Lot comprised of two hand carved wooden African tribal statues, one thinking man with elongated limbs and torso, one totem with two figures atop each other.
African wooden statues, carved with reverence and symbolic depth, serve as conduits between the physical and spiritual worlds, embodying ancestors, deities, and cultural ideals. Crafted from dense, resonant woods and often adorned with metal, beads, or pigments, these figures are not merely decorative but functional—used in rituals, rites of passage, and community ceremonies. Stylized features like elongated limbs, abstracted forms, or emphasized heads reflect not realism but spiritual significance, highlighting wisdom, fertility, or power. Whether standing guard in a shrine or carried in procession, each statue holds the memory of generations, a sacred vessel through which tradition breathes and speaks.
Size: 6 1/2 x 6 1/2 x 38 1/2 in.; 6 1/2 x 6 1/2 x 39 1/2 in.
