Brass, not bronze is the more common alloy from Benin. They like the more red look, so this would give credence to this being from Benin.
Saw a wonderful exhibit of about 200 Benin pieces. The biggest pieces I have ever seen. Some were almost six feet tall! http://www.ajc.com/news/content/metr...s_0503_01.html |
