Rare Style Vintage to Antique FANG 4 Face Mask

Item Details

Description

A Vintage and Rare carved wooden Fang peoples mask with four faces.Such masks with 4 faces are known in helmet type though I have never seen this style before. The mask appears to be old and well used and weathered, and features 4 mask faces, suggesting the artist was trying to convey the power of the spirit world to see and know all things.Perhaps the masks ability to see in all directions was to warn of possible dangers or illness. Fang peoples, Gabon, Africa.This rare mask is quite impressive and measures 14 x 10 inches. A display stand will be included, this is a standard helmet mask stand and the mask will balance on it.
