DOGON
OBJECT 3
21.5" high
$600

This support has been vetted as being authentic with signs of significant use and age.

It is a support for a bowl or similar object; its style is similar to the Dogon miniature ladders. There is some damage and holes in the upper arms.

In addition to the numerous types of masks and figures used traditionally in Dogon culture, most of their functional objects and architectural pieces have artistic significance, showing the importance they played in Dogon life.
