four Kuba wood cups
ECU #L0069 D

These four wood cups are carved from one piece of dark wood with patina. The surfaces are carved with geometric Kuba designs and the handles with stylized human heads, with attached fiber cords. Such cups, generally made from mahogany or ebony wood and rubbed with palm oil or tukula powder, were used in ceremonies for drinking palm wine from raffia palm trees. Provenance: Kuba royal family
