Description
This is a Vintage wooden mask from the Kumu tribe of the Congo, central Africa. Such masks are not common in literature as they were only collected in the last half of the 20th century, there is only sketchy information to their actual use, though from my own reading they were used in circumcision ceremonies as well as dances. The mask measures 17 x 8 inches
Condition
Well worn, some wear and minor scrapes and shallow stress fractures. Overall Good condition.
