African mask in black stained wood with turtle engraving

Dimensions: height 25cm x width 11.5cm x thickness 2.5cm approximately. Material: exotic wood (albizia). Handcrafted and fair trade. A fastener is present at the back of the mask to hang it easily.

This beautiful mask is the result of meticulous craftsmanship: the mask is first carved, then painted black. Then, the craftsman engraves the flower pattern by showing the natural color of the wood.
Travel to the heart of the African continent and appreciate the originality of this decorative mask. Inside, it will be highlighted next to a bookcase, above a chest of drawers or sofa. It can also be exposed outdoors after applying a thin layer of stain.

African masks: culture and meaning

Fascinating and attractive, African masks have a special meaning. They are true cultural symbols in Africa. The different African tribes are easily recognizable and identifiable because they have their own masks. What does not differ from one tribe or country to another is the symbolism that people give to masks. All are associated with power and knowledge.

Several African societies consider masks to be sacred objects. They are perceived as an intermediary between the world of the dead and the world of the living. They are also synonymous with protection.

Summary
Un classique à petit prix de la décoration exotique, issu d'un travail artisanal minutieux : le masque est d'abord sculpté et peint en noir. Puis, l'artisan grave la tortue en faisant apparaître la couleur naturelle du bois.
