Tefuk tent pole (Igetten)

Country: Mali

Material: Wood

Measurements: 13X4X56 cm

Old tent pole of the Tuareg of Mali. These poles were used to anchor the tents to the terrain of the Sahara, which is why the base of the staff appears corroded due to its prolonged stay in the sand. The upper part is sculpted and carved. The design of the stick allows you to hang utensils, bags, food, etc. to keep them away from sandy soil.
