Description :  ,Cerificate of Authenticity Available! Additional Information: ,A superb pais of Senufo Rhythm Pounder's. ,These are a wonderful example of standing female and male figure's with beautiful body lines in the finest Senufo tradition. The Senufo are the dominant culture in Cote d'Ivoire, and across the border into Mali. The Senufo carve numerous male and female figures as well as many remarkable masks. Most adhere rather strictly to a known set of proportions, but some can be quite abstract. It is thought that many Senufo artworks are produced by ",professional", carvers known to the village, and this accounts for the rather standardized ",look", found in the majority of their figural objects. Among the Senufo statues of this category are known as rhythm pounder (Pombibele) figures. The rhythm pounders were used in both funeral and initiation ceremonies. A skillfully-crafted example of one of the most famous of West African sculptures. The so-called ",rhythm pounders", are used at the funerals of important members of the ",Poro", Society, a powerful regulatory force throughout much of coastal West Africa. They are associated with loud booming noises when groups of them are struck on the ground, many of them are actually carried, and not used to make a sound at all.
