We are not exactly sure as to the origins of this figure but believe it to be from Sub Saharan Africa. The container was carved into the shape of a head, where the hat serves as the lid. It measures 18 inches tall and weighs 4.5 pounds. There is some minor water damage and regular cracking scuffing and wear and tear – please inspect photos.
