A large and heavy hand-crafted carving of an Eland antelope that was carved in the Central African Republic. The antelope has a raised platform that has an etched pattern. The horns spiral in a matching pattern. The wood has been stained a rich reddish-brown color. The back is flat suggesting that it is intended as a bookend. The base is flat and has no felt. The ears are attached. A handwritten paper label on the base reads NGODI BEDOOMA FLORENI SCULPTEUR PEINTRE A KOZO MBRES R.C.A. 4/3/99.

A large statue or bookend that will add a tribal look to your bookshelf and room. Period: 1990s Origin: Central African Republic Materials: Wood Dimensions: 5.75"W × 5.5"D × 14.25"H
