Rare early 20th century African bronze fertility staff or wand,c1920. Most likely from the Yoruba tribal area this is a well cast piece with male and female statues at both ends of the staff signifying the joining of the two. Undoubtedly a ceremonial piece this would have been used in rituals to help ensure fertility in new couples or those struggling to have children. The bronze has aged well with great colour/patina .Overall condition is good ,there is a small crack in the metal by one head ,very minor and most probably originating from the original casting process as the lost wax process often results in small losses etc.Price includes FREE UK delivery please contact me regarding international shipping.Size: 38cm tall x 8cm wide x 5cm deep, weight 1.1kg.Curious Antiques specialises in sourcing fine, rare and unusual antiques and curiosities.
