Venavi twin figure – Wood, Beads – Ewe – Togo

Couple figures from the Ewe tribe of Togo.

A fine figure made out of wood and wearing beaded jewelry around the neck and the waist. This miniature is used as a doll among the Ewe people. They are delightful miniature carvings and have a place in any collection for their carving and presence and for what they represent.

Provenance: Manfred Schäfer collection, ex- gallery owner from Ulm, Germany. Including custom made stand.
