This ravishing example may be compared to two other, similar combs (cf. Christie’s, New York, 13 October 1978, lot 6, and Christie’s, London, 22 November 1988, lot 142) sculpted by the artist Akinyode, a descendant of Eshubiyi, who is thought to have been one of the principal founders of the Abeokuta workshops around 1862, and who passed away in 1937.

Cet exemplaire ravissant se rapproche de deux autres peignes similaires (Christie’s, New York, 13 octobre 1978, lot 6, et Christie’s, Londres, 22 novembre 1988, lot 142) sculptés par l’artiste Akinyode (décédé en 1937) descendant d’Eshubiyi, qui, autour de 1862, comptait comme l’un des principaux fondateurs des ateliers d’Abeokuta.
