TRIBAL ART DEALERS
The following internet dealers support the aims of Paleobree and have authorised their listing. Some sites have yet to devise sales policies but reputation and quality of stock warrants their inclusion.
A reputable dealer will never claim to be infallible; fakes and misattributions can slip through the most experienced hands. Inclusion in this list is not a guarantee of authenticity - that's a dealer's duty - but it can be understood as a recognition of deserved reputation and honourable intent.
Paleobree does not accept self-referrals for inclusion on this list.
