You are bidding on very rare, unique and Gorgeous Old Original Tribal African Carved Wood Stool.

I am proud to announce that I will have the privilege to sell a part of an outsdanding African Art Collection of more than

150 Original and Authentic Antique Decorative items (Bronzes, Statues, Masks & Carvings) that I bought a while ago from a fantastic

New York private collection / estate auction sale.

This item is part of a third group of authentic images from that collection (the first and second ones have already been fully sold - and I kept a few to my collection)

They are all authentic and from reliable sources and have been part of the same collection for a long time.

I do have a large collection (in New York and Miami- of more than 100 pieces) of African images but don't have a very extensive knowledge about African Art.

I just collect them because I absolutelly love Tribal Original Art. My favotite is art from Nigeria.

I will try to describe the item as close as possible to what has been reported to me when I bought this collection.

In this item's case I don't know w it comes from.

Maybe an expert will identify the specifics of this piece.

I do not know the exact age of these Statues but I know that all the items from that New york collection have been with

the same owner for many years (some of the items for more than 30 years).

My price for this item is very reasonable in comparisson to similar items on line.

CONDITION:

I will try my best to report the accurate condition of all images I am offering on ebay.

The typical dry cracks and chips of African wood carvings.

One larg dry crack on the top part and one on the base part (see photos).

Some visible chips around the sculpted figures (SEE PHOTOS)

This is a tribal item and buyer must understand that the surface is not smooth.

T is the typical scratching and wear to the surface and edges of the statue.

T is some dirt/dust to the surface (see photos).

Otherwise the figure is in good condition with the typical wear and tear of old African Statues due to aging and use which adds character to this absolutely stunning and important collector's item.

PLEASE DO NOT BID IF YOU ARE NOT SURE ABOUT IT.

The carving details are gorgeous.

Please see pictures and feel free to ask me any questions about this item.

It measures (at tallest, widest and deepest points):

14"Tall (35.5cm)

10"Wide (25.4cm)

10"Deep (25.4cm)

I am an extremely honest person and have excellent reputation and feedback on ebay (feel free to check it).
