Description : Two (2) African Chokwe figural combs, Angola. Chokwe, combs (cisakulo) have a dual purpose. This utensil, with strong teeth, is used in the first place to untangle the hair of both men and women. However, combs can also be used to style and decorate the hair. The Chokwe are a major group of people in the largest part of eastern Angola. Chokwe groups also exist in Zambia and in the DRC. Chokwe combs can be classified in two major categories. The first concerns sculpted examples in wood. They have figurative or geometric decorations which are sculpted or cut in the wood. The second category includes combs whose wooden teeth are linked by a delicate weaving technique. SIZE: see attached ruler photo.
