Hand-Carved Wood Panel from the Dogon Tribe, Mali

About This Piece

Vintage Design

In good vintage condition. Measures: 15" /20" (38/50 cm)

This is a antique, Dogon People tribally hand carved and used African wood granary storage house door / window shutter with a sliding carved wooden door latch which was collected from Mali, Africa. Great overall condition with slight wear. Dogon wooden granary doors or wooden window shutters were a very important part of everyday Dogon life. The Dogon have always depended on the food they farm, mostly millet which they store in mud brick granaries. The windows and doors of the Dogon granary were sealed by wooden carved doors most of which are embellished with three dimensional high relief carvings which evoke protection. This old traditional piece of African art would be a perfect addition to any African collection and would make an amazing conversational piece display on a wall for interior design and home decor.
