Double Fon fetish, Benin
1 200€
Very beautiful old and authentic Voodoo Fon fetish composed of two figures leaning against each other and linked by a fabric loaded with cowries. The faces are stunning, finely sculpted and expressive. The object is loaded onto the torso of the larger figure of an animal skull. A beautiful patina of blood covers the whole.
