ON SALE!! Antique Central African Carved Wooden Mask with Elaborate Coiffure (Lulua Style) home decor African art
$179.55 $199.50
This exquisite antique Central African carved wooden mask, consistent with the refined "Lulua style," showcases remarkable artistry. The oval face features a serene expression with elongated, slit-like eyes, a prominent nose, and a delicately rendered mouth. Distinctive incised patterns, mimicking traditional scarification, adorn the forehead and cheeks. The most striking element is the elaborate, multi-lobed headdress with a textured surface, possibly representing an intricate traditional coiffure. The mask exhibits a beautiful contrast in finish, with lighter pigments highlighting the facial planes against darker elements of the headdress and features. This type of mask, often associated with initiation rituals or societal roles, is a testament to the sophisticated sculptural traditions of Central African cultures like the Lulua people, and its aged patina signifies its historical significance as an antique artifact.
