**************************************************
Northwest Cameroon - Early 1900s
This is an excellent tribally used
cimier or headcrest with a wizened and wise
bronze
matriarchal figure securely mounted atop a raffia helmet.
It is very old and
RARE
yet wonderfully preserved with great old patina. Probably used for generations before ending up in the hands of a collector. Style/motif/patina seem to indicate early 1900s.
The crest figure is missing a portion of one finger on the right hand.
The piece is 18
"
high, and weighs 2390 gms. (5 lbs.5 oz.)
