ROYAL STYLUS HOLDER

Thank you for your interest

SONGYE, CONGO
WOOD, BRASS, HEIGHT 51CM

This Nkisi figure has an extra base added on with a hole cut out in the middle. It served as the kings stylus holder, as well as the pipe holder, whichever was required. Another plaque was originally attached to the stomach area, the indentations are still visible, but either has fallen off or was removed for its value.
