Oracle Galukoji - Pende - DR Congo

Superb Pende oracle 'Galukoji'.
Its unique mechanism in African cultures allowed the diviner to designate the culprits in the crowd by bringing the mask close to the spectators’ faces while extending the handle.
This example features a small, finely carved face and still retains its original headdress.
