This superb hand-made Baule Kpan or Mblo Portrait Mask stands 14" high, 6" wide, and 4.5" deep. It was crafted from a single piece of wood to honor important visitors to the village and to entertain during days of leisure. Its intricate design is reminiscent of older Baule artistry, and its finely sculpted facial features may even resemble its original subject.
