Julien Gauthier

Très belle et rare épée courte ciselée Luba
Longueur totale : 58 cm
Largeur max. (lame) : 10,5 cm
Matériaux : fer forgé, bois, fil de fer 
Provenance : Danny De Waele - Belgique (dannytribalart - Watervliet)

Ciselé en poinçons avec une partie de la lame noircie au charbon. Ces glaives pouvaient être présents dans les groupes tribaux Bena-Lulua et Nkutshu. Même sans son fourreau et avec une poignée cassée et restaurée, elle reste bien entendu une pièce assez rare. L'absence du fourreau permettra de mettre en valeur la qualité de la lame et ses gravures.
