Vintage Tuareg wooden pole from Niger 

This decorative large wooden pole was once the handle of a pickaxe used by the Bela. The Bela people are a social class within the Tuareg people. This class emerged during the times of slavery. They are black people working for the Tuareg. This beautiful and elaborately crafted pickaxe pole has the fine decorations typical of the Tuareg. The wooden pole was mounted on a metal stand and is now a beautiful decorative object. A unique piece!
