West African Dan Tribe Cowrie Shell Wood Mask
$199
Design Plus Gallery presents a West African Dan Tribe Cowrie Shell Wood Mask. Carved from wood, the mask has an elongated face with rounded eye openings, a sculpted nose, pronounced lips, and decorative metal details. The upper section is densely adorned with natural cowrie shells secured over woven fiber and rope, creating a distinctive headdress effect. The reverse retains a hanging cord and shows the hand-worked interior of the wood. Natural variations, patina, surface marks, and age-related wear contribute to the character of the piece. It is in good condition with visible and minimal wear from usage.
