Senufo Vintage Ritual Flute Trumpet on Stand | 40" - Ivory Coast
$3,000.00
This very old, authentic African wooden wind instrument is a cross between a flute, a trumpet, a horn and a kazoo. It was used for ceremonial, not so much for musical performance purposes, to call the spirits into presence, invoking their influence for the benefit of the community, the village.
This is the best of our collection of this type of trumpet. It "floats" on the stand which is provided with this purchase.
This beautiful and decorative object measures:
39 3/4 x 6" diameter (101 x 15 cm) 6 3/4" diameter base (17 cm)
