This lot includes three hand-carved wooden sculptures, likely of African origin. One is a bust of a woman wearing a head wrap and necklace, and the other one depicting a woman with a mortar and pestle, and the other a woman's head. The sculptures exhibit a dark, rich patina and show detailed carving.

Condition

The sculptures are in good condition with minor wear consistent with age and use. There is a small crack on the back of the central bust, as shown in the images. The color and patina are consistent across all three pieces, suggesting they may be from the same maker or region.
