Luba Headrest

Authentic hand-carved wooden headrest from the Luba people of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Traditionally associated with prestige and cultural symbolism, these sculptural objects were created for respected individuals and admired for their refined craftsmanship and elegant forms.

This rare double-caryatid composition features two stylized face-to-face figures skillfully carved to follow and enhance the natural curves of the wood. The balanced sculptural design reflects the artistic sophistication and symbolic harmony characteristic of traditional Luba artistry.
