BENIN NIGERIA BRONZE HEAD
The Benin Bronzes are a group of more than a thousand commemorative metal plaques and sculptures that decorated the royal palace of the Benin Kingdom in southern Nigeria.ￂﾠ Today, it is clear that the bronzes were made in Benin from an indigenous culture.


The metal pieces were made using lost-wax casting and are considered among the best sculptures made using this molding which is necessarily destroyed as part of the casting process.

This bronze head measures 24cms high x10cms wide x 12cms depth.ￂﾠ It weighs 828 grams.


The Benin Kingdom was strong throughout the 15th and 16th Centuries and was located in West Africa bordering what is now Nigeria and Togo. Benin Clans were ruled by a King which was known as the Oba.

ￂﾠ

An extremely good example of the workmanship of the Benin people and a very collectable piece of history.ￂﾠ It has been partly cleaned - just imagine how great it will look when fully cleaned and polished.
