This is a Liberian Mende mask created by a master carver. This is a one of a kind piece and superbly carved. The piece is 24 inches in height with a 12 inch opening at the base. The piece has very minor stress fractures which are difficult to see but it is in otherwise great condition. This is an awesome piece when viewed in person and for those that enjoy industrial type decorating, this piece would go well with any scheme in a contemporary setting.
A provenance statement will be provided to the buyer containing the details for this piece. Unfortunately, due to fraudulent websites capturing the pictures I list and then try and resale the pieces as theirs, I cannot provide the significant historic details for this piece which is why a provenance statement is provided.
The piece is large and a bit heavy and will require special packing for shipment so the buyer will be responsible for paying USD 50.00 to have the piece shipped anywhere within the continental USA. lf shipping cost more seller will pay excess shipping costs. .
