This rare antique wooden statue comes from the Mituku (Metoko) tribe of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, a people rooted in ancestral customs and balanced social leadership. This powerful piece represents the unique artistry and symbolism used by the Mituku, known for their spiritual association with the Bukota society, a cultural group tied to initiation and communal values.
Carved by hand and aged naturally, this vintage tribal figure makes a stunning statement as floor or wall decor in homes, offices, or galleries. The figure's primitive features, earthy brown and beige hues, and weathered condition speak to its authenticity and age, making it a collector's gem for those passionate about African tribal art.
An excellent piece for cultural connoisseurs, spiritual decorators, or those seeking soulful heritage decor.
