Description
A hand-carved wooden decorative relief panel of elongated, tapering form, mimicking the shape of a tusk. The obverse features vertically stacked relief carvings of various African animals, including an elephant, a giraffe with circular hide markings, a water buffalo with prominent curved horns, and a lion at the base. The figures are rendered with a rustic, hand-finished quality within recessed niches. The reverse of the object is flat and uncarved, revealing the natural wood grain and longitudinal drying cracks. A small circular hole is drilled at the pointed end for mounting. The wood is finished with a light, honey-coloured patina.
Length: 23 inches.
Condition report:
The item is in good decorative condition. Several natural longitudinal drying cracks are visible on the reverse side. Minor surface abrasions and small chips are present within the recessed carvings consistent with age and handling.
