Ogoni Karikpo (or Bwa?) AFRICAN MASK Nigeria or Burkina Faso? [Boston Primitive]:
$160.00
I\'m not sure about this mask\'s origin; it was purchased directly from an African trader. Looks like it could be either Bwa (Burkina Faso) or Ogoni Karikpo (Nigeria). It is old and shows a lot of wear. From the strange crest, Shrek ears, dumbfounded eyes, and notched ridge nose to the lethal-looking tooth-filled beak of a mouth, it is a very interesting example of African artisanry. I have no doubt as to its authenticity. The interior has acquired a rich patina and the attachment holes document repeated lashings. It\'s a very good piece, rustic andsophisticated. 14 1/4\" x 7\" x 5\". U.S. buyers please. [Boston Primitive]
