Masks & Symbols from Southern & Central Africa

Very beautiful, extremely stylized mask, with alternating parallel bands in two shades whose depths enhance the contrasts, a lovely crusty patina. This type of mask is sometimes presented as Kela or Kela-Yela.

Très beau masque stylisé à l'extrême, alternance des bandes parallèles en deux teintes dont les profondeurs accentuent les contrastes, belle patine croûteuse, c'est type de masque est parfois présenté comme Kela comme Kela-Yela
