You have found the missing piece to your Mask Collection! Here is a Vintage Decorative Hand Carved Wooden African Mask from Kenyan. In most traditional African cultures, the person who wears a ritual mask conceptually loses his or her human identity and turns into the spirit represented by the mask itself. This transformation of the mask wearer into a spirit usually relies on other practices, such as specific types of music and dance, or ritual costumes that contribute to conceal the mask-wearer’s human identity. The mask wearer thus becomes a sort of medium that allows for a dialogue between the community and the spirits (usually those of the dead or nature-related spirits). Masked dances are a part of most traditional African ceremonies related to weddings, initiation rites and so on.
Bring a touch of Kenyan culture into your home with this beautifully handcrafted wood mask. Measuring 9 inches by 5 inches, and in excellent preowned condition based on Wear from Age (see Pictures).
this unique piece showcases intricate detailing and vibrant colors, featuring a traditional design that embodies the rich artistic heritage of Kenya. The back of the mask is inscribed with the Swahili greeting \"JAMBO KENYA,\" adding an authentic touch to this exquisite work of art. Perfect for wall decor or as a thoughtful gift, this mask will add a distinctive and cultural flair to any space.
