    Description

    The beautiful statue was hand-carved in Angola.  It is an antique which makes it unique and very authentic - carved out of wood.  Chokwe tribal Chief holding his wooden Chief Sticks - which gives a display of authority.
    The Chokwe were once one of the twelve clans of the great
    Lunda Empire
    of 17th- and 18th-century Angola
    . They eventually became independent when they refused to continue paying tribute to the Lunda emperor. Their successful trading and abundant resources caused them to be one of the wealthiest groups in Angola. By 1900 the Chokwe had dismantled the Lunda kingdom altogether.
    Chokwe language and influence then began to dominate northeastern Angola and spread among the Lunda peoples.
    It
    has lead-free paint, microwave safe and dishwasher safe.
