African Mangbetu Nebeli Statue: A Masterpiece of African Art, symbol of virility, for your collection (Blst30037)

This Mangbetu Nebeli statue is a representation of masculine virility, a work of art, and a cultural artifact of great value associated with fertility. It is characterized by its elongated head, elaborate hairstyle, scarification, and patina.

The elongated head is a physical trait characteristic of the Mangbetu people, who are native to northern Democratic Republic of the Congo. Elongated heads are achieved by binding the skulls of babies from an early age.

The elaborate hairstyle and scarification on the face and body are traditional forms of body art among the Mangbetu.

This statue is a masterpiece of African art. It is carved from wood with great finesse and skill. It is also an important cultural artifact, as it bears witness to the culture and traditions of the Mangbetu people.

This statue is a unique and precious work of art. It is ideal for collectors of African art or for people who want to decorate their home with a special piece.
