#5501 Superb African Baule Portrait Mask Cote D'ivoire 17" H

A superbly carved single-piece wooden Baule Kpan or Mblo Portrait mask stands at 17" tall, 5.25" wide, and 4" deep. These masks are traditionally performed during days of rest and to honor important visitors. This timeless artifact is a tribute to the exceptional skill of the Baule craftsmen of the past and potentially even to the original owner of the mask.
