African Wood Carvings
African Statues | Wood Carvings
The African statue is a very significant symbol and an integral part of traditional African
culture. The statues of the African people typically reflect symbols of their ancient past,
as well as the daily activities that the African village people may be involved in. The
African statues are attributes to the different makers in the traditional culture, not the
country as a whole. A representation of kings, queens, fertility, love and tribal markings
are common and revered symbols typically used. These complex African statues simply
express important social, spiritual and moral values for the whole tribe to emulate.
African statues are a wonderful way to bring the spirit of Africa into your home since
each piece is hand carved by a talented African artisan.
