Libreville - Post Report Question and Answers
Is this a "shopping post"? Are there interesting handicrafts, artwork, antiques, or other items that people typically buy there?
For fabric absolutely. There are wooden sculptures and traditional tribal masks too, but be careful what kind of wood so it's not restricted (for instance, ebony). I'd also bring someone along that has a sense of the authenticity and value so you don't get fleeced, but generally people seem happy with their purchases. - Oct 2020
