Stunning Antique 1800s Benin Africa Bronze Statue of a Fierce Warrior

Item Details

Description

This stunning bronze statue, representing a fierce warrior with ceremonial sword, was made in Benin (modern-day Nigeria) in the early 1800s. Likely, it also represents a royal guardian. The piece was masterfully cast and is finely detailed giving testimony to the might of past Benin kingdoms in West Africa. Such sculptures were typically placed in the royal palace in great numbers adding to the honor and prestige of the ruler. Incredibly decorative piece! Very good antique condition with patina according to age. No damage. Measures approx. 21" tall.
