Female Reliquary Figure

The three dimensions of this sculpture are beautifully balanced; its face, headdress, and hands are delicately modeled. In the Betsi style, the head is always large, imposing and majestic. This female figure holding an offering bowl is  beautifully adorned with brass tacks in the coiffure's crest and in its protruding navel, and has wrist and ankle bracelets.
