Handcrafted Wooden Dogon Ladder, Mali, 20th Century
About the Item
A classic Dogon ladder made of dark wood and mounted on a sturdy metal stand.
The Dogon people live in southeastern Mali and Burkina Faso. Despite being surrounded by Muslims, they remained loyal to their ancestral religion and maintain their traditions.
