Benin-Style Spiked Crown Bronze Bust
6.5"H × 3"W · 1.3 lb
$195
Small cast bronze bust in the Benin Kingdom (Nigeria) style, with a spiked crown, coiled neck rings, and a woven diamond-lattice pattern across the torso characteristic of that tradition. This is a modern casting made for the decorative/export market, not a historical piece — genuine antique Benin bronzes are subject to well-known repatriation claims and require documented provenance, which this piece does not have. Offered here as a decorative work in the Benin style.

Part of a collection bought directly from the carving artists during the original collector's travels — not mass-market inventory. Individual piece records like exact artist and precise origin weren't kept, so the region and material shown here are a general description, not a verified attribution. Pricing is banded to comparable current market listings for this type of piece, not an individual appraisal. Dimensions and weight are approximate.
