Carved bust figure of African woman, bought by my grandad in Nigeria. Made from some type of hard wood, so it’s very very heavy. Great condition except for a few scratches and chips on the back and edges.

Original solid Teracotta vintage African ife memorial head figurine intriguing little item . He does have a few little nibbles as in my pictures. The detail is amazing. He is signed on the base reading ? (I think) Tepes by Peter Saghi ?. He's quite a heavy lump so postage will reflect this as he will need extra packaging. He measures 12 cm tall . Unfortunately I'm unable to provide you with more detail on this amazing piece of sculpture please feel free to ask questions I will do my best to answer. Postage for UK bidders only.
