Fang Byeri Reliquary Figure on Custom Base Gabon

Overall Condition: Good. Most of our pieces have spent decades on at least two continents, and have been treasured by several owners.   Small splits, scrapes and cracks are a normal part of their patina attesting to their age and extensive use.  We examine each piece carefully when we receive it and report any damage we find in our listings.  Please look carefully at the pictures which may also reveal condition and damage.

Damage/Repair: Damaged foot

In recent centuries, the Fang migrated into their current area from the northeast as small groups or families of nomadic agriculturalists. Their militant nature allowed them to seize land from their weaker neighbors as they moved in.
