Description
Striking large Mambila-style Tadep figure from the Nigeria–Cameroon border region. This piece was carved in traditional form and made for the collector market, not a ritual-used object. Strong sculptural presence with expressive facial features, elongated proportions, and an intentionally aged surface finish. At 30 inches tall, this is a substantial and visually powerful piece — far larger than most examples. Ideal for: • African art collectors • Interior designers • Gallery or statement display • Modern or eclectic interiors Details: • Style: Mambila / Tadep • Region: Nigeria / Cameroon • Material: Carved wood • Height: approx. 30 inches • Date: late 20th century • Condition: good, with age-style surface and wear consistent with decorative production This is a decorative African sculpture, priced accordingly — not represented as a ritual or antique artifact. 📍 Local pickup preferred. Delivery or shipping may be arranged at buyer’s expense.
