Hi all,
I send some pics of my one bought by Artzi. The blade, of different kind, is forged in one piece with the loop, that has similar decoration. I don't know its age.
Regards
Paolo

The Tiv are an interesting culture not a lot of people collect there. I thought that the members might like to see something else from the TiV -- Provenace Charles Jones and Lew Deadmore.

about 20" tall. A powerful woman.

I find West and Central Afirca the most interesting of the African peoples.

Now it has arrived, I can see that this is forged in 'one piece' and has been skillfully done. Very pleased with this piece
