Description
These are a large pair of hand carved African Wooden Figures, unsure of the exact date but certainly have some age and would guess circa 1920s - 1930s.
An unusually large pair of figures that are a little crude in the carving but does add to the charm.
measurements
Each figure stands approx 43 inches high and weights approx 12 kilos each.
declaration
Elder Books & Collectables has clarified that the Large Pair of Hand Carved African Figures King & Queen Carvings (LA207928) is genuinely of the period declared with the date/period of manufacture being c.1930
condition
A number of old splits to the wood, several minor knocks, chips and rubbing, Some loss to base of male figure, base of male figure a bit uneven and would need card underneath or similar to keep level.
I have taken plenty of images for further condition report.
Overall in very good condition with no major damage or repairs.
