Baule Catapult - Ivory Coast
This Baule catapult from the Ivory Coast is carved from warm timber, with a forked lower form and a stylised human figure rising through the centre. Its compact scale is balanced by charming carved details, including a small face, textured hair and geometric markings along the body, giving the practical object an appealing sculptural quality. Mounted on a simple black stand, it is a wonderful curiosity for a bookshelf, desk or display cabinet, adding a tactile piece of West African craft to a layered collection.
