Recent Acquisitions Summer 2026

It is my pleasure to present this catalogue of Recent Acquisitions – Summer 2026.

The catalogue brings together 30 carefully selected pieces.

Some are pieces I have enjoyed living with for many years and have decided to offer for the first time - most notably the Luba Kifwebe mask, which appears as the final piece in the catalogue - whilst the majority are more recent discoveries that immediately stood out for their quality, provenance and artistic appeal.

If you would like further information, condition report, or additional photographs of any of the pieces, please do not hesitate to contact me. My contact details are provided below.

Prices for all pieces can be found at the back of the catalogue. You will also find a link to my website, where you can view additional photographs and more detailed descriptions of each piece.
