Tabwa artisans are celebrated for their ability to infuse wood with deep spiritual meaning, and their maternity figures are among their most revered works, symbolizing fertility, the nurturing cycle, and the essential role of women in the community. Highly prized by ethnographic art collectors and museum curators, this 13-inch sculpture is a sensitive and powerful work of art. The mask features the signature Tabwa aesthetic: a serene, introspective facial expression, smooth, sculptural contours of the female torso, and a rich, darkened patina that has developed over time. Carved from a single block of dense, native hardwood, the piece offers a grounded, substantial presence. With a 5-inch depth, it possesses a beautiful three-dimensional quality that catches the light and highlights the organic, master-tooled surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDimensions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e13 x 5 x 7 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMaterials\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-carved Native Hardwood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDisplay \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWall Hanging — a wire or hook is included on the back for easy mounting.
