Catawiki’s goal is to make special objects universally available. Our weekly auctions feature thousands of unusual, rare, and exceptional objects you won’t find in just any store. Top – notch Spirit Vessel – Dakakari – NigeriaIn sound state. It dates back to the s.Provenance: collected by Dr. P. Westerdijk in situ with several other pieces in in Plateau State, north central Nigeria.Spirit vessels are meant to strengthen the weak soul of the newly – passed – away so as to give it a temporary abode and to prepare it for its final journey to the land of the dead. This custom to make such vessels exists among the people living in a band stretching from north central Nigeria to northern Cameroun (Mandara region). These vessels contain the spirit and houses it. The fluid poured from it feeds the spirit.Here the execution shows a wonderfully artistic degree of freedom of expression in that the deceased is portrayed with an open mouth to receive the essence of the libation before it enters the earth of his or her grave. In most cases, only a head surmounts the vessel instead of a full figure. All such terrific works of art have been created by women potters. Westerdijk found a few of such graveyards outside the villages he visited, only to find that most pottery pieces had been destroyed.Literature: Arnulf Stössel: Afrikanische Keramik, München, , pp. .Dimensions: 46 x cm.Region / People: The Dakakari of north central Nigeria live in Plateau – Benue State.Material: coloured pottery.Weight: 3.7 kg.For the original text from seller, set language on this site to: EnglishSold with written declaration of authenticity by Dr. P. Westerdijk, museum ethnologist and cultural anthropologist specialized in the material cultures of people living south of the Sahara. Sent by registered and insured mail. Read more
