SCEPTER of AUTHORITY called Kibango
Luba culture, Democratic Republic of the Congo
First half of the 20th century
Wood
H.: 147.5; L.: 14 cm

Wooden scepter of authority carved symmetrically on both sides. It consists of a flat section, cut into a stylized triangle and a leafy shape, incised with dibulu motifs – which refer to royalty. Only the part of the socket is smooth and cylindrical.
The upper part is animated by a face with a broad domed forehead, topped with a diadem, while the lower part depicts a character standing, arms in imploration.

Kibango are signs of power and prestige.
