ANTIQUE AFRICAN TERRACOTTA HEAD
A lovely African pottery study of a head with very well executed and expressive features.
The head was formerly part of a larger sculpture or object and the neck sits at a curious angle of approaching ninety degrees.
The neck has a hole of approx 55mm depth which could be used to fix a mounting rod for display.
Date: Probably early 20th Century.
Condition. Good condition and degree of wear commensurate with age. The head has clearly been removed from a larger piece. In its current format the head is not naturally free-standing.
