Hi Martin,
Thank you, and no worries... I took pictures of it at his house to put it up in front of the forum
before I bought it for this very reason.
I have several African pieces - edged weapons, masks, and a shield - all which were made for indigenous use (ceremonial, warfare, or otherwise), and I wish not to dilute the collection with pieces made purely for the tourist market.
Anybody else want to chime in?
