Afrikanische Stammesmaske mit Hörnern – Raffia – 20. Jahrhundert - Maske - Baule / Guro - Elfenbeinküste (Ohne mindestpreis)
Striking African tribal mask featuring a highly expressive face with pronounced teeth, elongated nose, and distinctive curved horn elements on top. The mask is surrounded by a thick raffia fiber collar, adding strong visual presence and authenticity.
The face is carved from wood and painted in traditional contrasting colors (white, black, and red), symbolizing ritual or ceremonial significance. The horns and stylized facial features suggest influence from West African mask traditions, possibly inspired by cultures such as Baule or Guro (Ivory Coast region).
The backside clearly shows hand-carved workmanship and natural fiber attachment, indicating traditional production techniques.
This type of mask was typically used in dances or ceremonies and today serves as a powerful decorative collector’s piece.
