I don't want to suggest that this is a fake but the potential is great.

I know it is the case of African objects and other countries, I often travel in Africa and I also see thousands of masks statues ect... that are fake!
However this statue just a very old house or bought not evil of ancient weapons, these are people who had traveled at the beginning of the last century. I saw this statue without paying attention long... and one day I bought it!
I'm no expert can be that it is a fake but! There is a small chance

In this case there is a good chance that it is indeed an original!
