Please note: African Tribal arts are not a part of our field of knowledge. We encourage buyers to view in person.
We did not use a consultant for monetary evaluation, therefore, estimates provided have little to do with reality. Many of the objects were purchased at Sotheby’s and Christie’s in the 90’s, but the heir does not have any information beyond memory and a few Sotheby’s stickers which remained. We believe some objects to be important, but again, we advise personal inspection. All items are sold ‘as is’ regardless of description.
