Item Details

Description

60
Axt
Tiv, Nigeria
Gesockelt / with custom base
Gelbguss, Eisen. H 49 cm.

Provenienz:
deutsche Privatsammlung, Berlin.

Der Griff und die Klinge sind aus Eisen geschmiedet, das Griffende und der Kopf wurden aus Gelbguss im Wachsausschmelzverfahren darübergegossen.

Die Zweckmässigkeit dieser grafisch exquisit gestalteten Waffe war eher sekundär, da die Form primär zur Identifikation der Stammeszugehörigkeit und des Status des Trägers diente.
