The Lele live to the west of the Kuba kingdom and share common cultural specificities with the Bushoong of the Kuba country. Both groups decorate their prestige objects with similar motifs.

This is a small cup in which the ingredients of remedies or the elements of ritual anointings were crushed. Glossy patina of use. Minor accidents.
