This traditional african mask was carved by the Dan people of Côte d’Ivoire or Liberia. Known for their ceremonial masks, the Dan use this type of african mask in initiation, social enforcement, and spiritual protection rituals. The cowrie shell crown represents status and ritual significance.
The african mask is hand-carved from wood, with a refined elongated form, narrow slit eyes, and symmetrical cheek curves. The finish includes red-brown pigment with subtle aging, and a border of cowrie shells stitched into the top. Each feature is purposeful, evoking ancestral energy and spiritual focus.
This vintage african mask brings depth and cultural meaning to any display. Ideal for tribal art collectors and interior designers alike.
Stand not included.
