Description

Item/Description: Three assorted decorative African masks. Lot includes:

- Hand carved, long and narrow, decorative Marka style mask by the Maraka people of Mali. The mask portrays a combination of human and antelope features: elongated human face and antler horns.

As is typical of these masks, the face is elongated, the mouth very narrow with raised lips, and the eyes cast downward, a show of respect common in many African masks. Surface covered with a finely carved linear repetitive pattern. (Ceremonial, Tribal, Soninke, Sculpture)
Material: Hand carved wood
Dimensions: Length: 24"; Width: 7"; Depth: 8"
Condition: Fair. Surface use and age wear includes areas of wood loss, chipping, abrasions, paint loss.

-Bali style hand carved African Mali mask. Decorative mask features six vertical prongs in crown-like appearance. Streamlined elongated features, scarification marks shown by bands across the forehead. (Bamana, Bambara, Ceremonial, Tribal, Primitive, Spirit, Ritual, Sculpture)
Material: Wood, pigment
Dimensions: Length: 20"; Width: 7 3/4"; Depth: 7"
Condition: Surface use and age wear includes scratches and cracks, wood loss.

- Dramatic Marka style mask from West Africa. Hand carved wood, covered in hammered metal with rivets, tradecloth accents. Interesting mixed media textured surface. Horn embellishments. Zoomorphic. Beautiful workmanship, decorative mask
