Despite its appearance, we believe this Fang post was made to be sold.
With a short split on the left side and long splits on the front and back (all now stable), this post is magically transformed into a tall, robed figure, a unique and wonderful change.
The figures on these posts are similar to the Bieri figures which
were guardians of the enshrined relics of important ancestors. They are
notable for their child-like proportions contrasted with a muscular, poised
vigilance.
