Ashanti comb

Very beautiful African comb from Ghana with a light patina.
On top of this this traditional African art object, a dignitary figurine, here a woman holding a baby in her arms, she is breastfeeding her.
The treatment of the head, large and flat is typical of Ashanti who we also recognize the Akua'ba fertility dolls.
There are pretty chiseled patterns.
