Figure 1 17.25" high $1200 |
The Eket figure above has been vetted as authentic with signs of significant age and use.
Despite their appearance the Eket figures below show no evidence of age or use and were probably made to be sold.
Eket figures, like the heads, are usually worn as crests of headdresses. Figures like these are danced in the annual Ogbom ceremony. Many of the figures have strongly abstracted concave bodies.
All of my old photos of Eket figures are much too green.
