Object: A Fine Miniature Teke Figure Size: 4" Age: Late 19th/Early 20th Century
Provenance: L. Bronson Collection, LA Inventory numbers on bottom of base.
Notes: This miniature Teke packs quite a punch for such a small piece. The body is very well carved unlike most Teke, especially for a 4 inch teke! The cubist lines are impressive. The magic charge is long gone; but the exposed area shows extremely oxidized wood from great age. The patina is rich and deep with good signs of wear. The old rope is original to the piece.
