About this piece
A hair pick with a head like a small antelope.
Lobi makers of Burkina Faso, West Africa, cast this animal-form hair pick in bronze in the early 20th century. Picks and combs in West Africa are commonly both practical and ornamental. The slender shaft is marked with raised bands and ends in a stylized animal head, with upright ears. The metal has a warm dark brown patina, and it stands upright on a slim black mount.
About 9 inches tall with its stand. Grooming, elevated. A hair pick that outgrew the dresser.
