Bobo Fetish Figure
Bobo power figures are commonly adorned with fiber cloth or leather hide, like this one, in an effort to achieve the appearance of a clothed personage. This wood-carved fetish, covered from head to toe in woven leather stitching, exhibits a varied and worn texture indicating age and ritual use. This is a remarkable power figure for its sharp-cornered headcrest along with both a belt and necklace made of black-and-white leather.
