Bayaleng Jug, Congo - 97.5

 

A Decorative water jug, hand carved out of a single light-weight wood. Its estimated to be more than 30 years old.  Please, refer to pictures for condition. 

Artisanal Design & Heritage

​The jug features a bulbous body that tapers gracefully into a flared rim, accented by meticulous hand-etched detailing. A series of horizontal parallel lines encircle the neck, punctuated by a delicate band of vertical incisions that add a rhythmic, tactile quality to the piece.

​Hand-Carved Integrity: The angular, sturdy handle is integrated directly into the body, showcasing the carver's mastery over the medium.

​Rich Patina: The deep, chocolate-brown finish reflects decades of handling and traditional curing, giving the wood a soft, organic luster.

​Cultural Significance: In Bayaleng culture, such vessels were often used for serving palm wine or water, standing as symbols of hospitality and communal gathering.

Size: H 16cm W 20cm D 11cm
