This gallery focuses on imported art and objects from East and West Africa. The stock is mostly a pre-World War II antique assortment of carved wood sculptural pieces that can serve as furniture or gifts for the home. Owner Peter Mullett travels the continent to acquire his pieces, which include wall hangings, Ethiopian chairs and stools and more primitive figurative works. There are a number of religious items, many with a Christian motif. If you are interested in architectural pieces, browse the palace entryways and carved windowsills. The gallery occasionally offers exhibitions that include such works as West African drums and textiles.
