Description: This Benin bronze royal leopard measures 20 inches tall at the ears and 28 inches from nose to tail. It is cast in the traditional lost wax method in which the mold must be destroyed after each casting. Because of this, no two Benin bronzes are identical. From the 13th through the 19th century the Kingdom of Benin lay along the shore of the Atlantic ocean in modern day Nigeria. This prime trading location made Benin and its capital city Ile-Ife one of the wealthiest, most powerful African Kingdoms. They are world-renown for their distinctive bronzes - FREE US SHIPPING
