BOWL - Wooden sculpture in the form of a stylized head, with an upper opening and a pedestal base. Richly carved surface: a mesh band on the rim, facial scarifications, almond-shaped half-closed eyes, and triangular and circular geometric motifs at the base, with incisions highlighted by a golden hue. Dark, lustrous patina, with signs of use and a small lacuna on the rim. The morphology and decorative grammar may resemble productions from Central Africa.
