About this piece
Tall, thin and quietly watchful, with a necklace of carved lines.
This standing male fetish figure was carved in wood by Makonde artists of Tanzania, East Africa, in the 20th century. Makonde figures are often slender and associated with ancestors. The head is large and round, topped with a small crest, and a band of fine incised marks wraps the neck. Long arms hang free from the shoulders. The surface is glossy brown, and he stands on a black square base.
About 14 inches tall. Pair him with the female and the conversation starts itself.
