My name is De Waele Danny,I started collecting African art from Congo in 1985.I live in Belgium and as you surely know Congo was a Belgian colonie until 1960.Very soon it became a real passion taking most of my time.Many tribal objects from Congo found there way to Belgium through missionaries,schools,Belgians working in Congo,etc...I'm interested in all tribal objects from Congo:statues,masks,etnographic objects,combs,textiles,baskets,musical instruments,jewels,ivory,books,old postcards and last but not least shields and arms."
