Single Ado Odo Male

An unusual male Ibeji, most likely carved in Ado Odo. The figure's apron is decorated with zig-zag lines that mirror the pattern on the sides of the base. The arms are detached from the torso, and the crested coiffure is tinted with a deep Reckitt’s blue stain. Notably, small sections of wood were removed from the mouth for use in tribal ceremonies.
