This decorative African mask from the 1970s is a testament to handcrafting traditions, rooted in tribal heritage yet aligned with the modernist reinterpretation of ethnic art. Carved from a single piece of balsa wood, it features an elongated oval silhouette and minimalist, stylized facial features. The primary color is a muted, cool gray with a matte finish, revealing a slightly rough texture and visible wood grain. Brown and black accents highlight the brow, nose, and mouth areas, while a distinctive dark triangular motif at the chin adds geometric definition. Two simple, incised arches on the forehead accentuate the artisanal quality of the piece. The mask's narrow nose and slit-like eyes lend it a serene, contemplative look, and a simple hanging loop on the back facilitates wall display. The mask is in excellent vintage condition, with no visible damage, cracks, or repairs, and displays a gentle, authentic patina. The form of
