    African Vintage Hand Carved Wooden African figurative wooden comb yisanunu-25/5.6 CM
    This figurative wooden comb (yisanunu) was worn by a high-ranking Yaka man as a symbol of his status. At the summit of its head is a projection in the shape of a bovine head with incised oval eyes and nostrils. This projection likely depicts a coiffure or headdress associated with a high-ranking male, among whom certain headgear was a symbol of status. The "body" or grip of the comb is a flat square ornamented with incised geometric designs of triangles and hatching; unusually, it also contains the face of the comb. The face is signified by a projecting fore head and a bulbous, upturned nose with a snub end. The mouth is slightly curved, with slender lips
