This is simply a wonderful old mask by a Pende craftsman in the Congo. Multi-material and complex, the frayed netting in back and the somewhat unwound wrapping on its “horns” or “crown” do not detract from the quality or beauty of a very fine example. Skillful carving and painting elevate this Mbuya mask to museum-worthiness. Its face, wooden portion, is about 9″ tall, with crown about 17″ and including netting 20. I will modify the invoice if you want it.
