This is an outstanding old mask imported from the Guere tribe of the Ivory Coast. It's a ritual war mask that has been carved from a heavyweight wood. Typically adorned with fur and feathers these fierce faces are meant to instill respect and power. This mask measures over 11” in height, 7” in width by 5” in depth. It is older and shows signs of wear as you can see in the photos. Priority Mail shipping in the U.S. will be $16.00. Paypal and checks accepted and all auctions are unconditionally guaranteed, too.
