Wooden Janus Face Charm with Place for Charge on Top of Head - Songye People, D.R. Congo

$195.00
Collected by Gay Apuhn in the late 1960's.
This small pendant was probably used as a necklace charm; or tied to a group of charms; or even possibly attached to a larger Songye object.
Note the deeply carved fetish cavity on top on the piece. Probably worn for protection.

Height: 4 1/2" x 7/8"
