Mask West African
An authentic handcrafted West African lost-wax cast bronze tribal mask featuring prominent curved horns and traditional geometric projections, inspired by Senufo Kpelie ceremonial art.
- Iconic Horned Senufo Aesthetic: Sculpted with sweeping curved horns arching toward the center, flanged geometric ear-flaps, and downward curved mandibular elements characteristic of classic Kpelie masks.
- Artisanal Lost-Wax Casting: Handcrafted using the traditional African cire-perdue technique, featuring cross-hatched textured registers across the horns and a fitted top suspension loop for hanging.
- Expressive Facial Stylization: Modeled with open elliptical eye slits, a sharp vertical nose bridge, delicate facial scarifications, and an open smiling mouth.
- Rich Earthen Patina: Features an aged oxidized surface with warm terra-cotta tones, dark bronze depth, and authentic patination from handling and casting.
