Zigua container (N° 28534) Deposit sale

French collection of African art .
Functional object of tribal art, particularly aesthetic thanks to its dotted decoration, from the northeastern region of Tanzania. This region borders Kenya, facing the Indian Ocean, where the Paré, Shamba, Zigua, and Mbugu tribes live. A relative homogeneity characterizes the productions of these groups, recalling some of the Malagasy and Bataks with whom, via maritime trade, contact could once have been established.
