The Luba female figure is crafted as a veneration of feminine beauty and motherhood. Crafted from wood, the Luba female figures are distinct with their hand-carved and distinct head-pieces. The history of the Luba people can be traced back 500 years as they have dominated part of the Congo during that time. Luba society is still a large culture, and their influence remains significant. Luba and their closely related neighbors the Hemba, are some of the most important crafters and carvers in Central Africa.
