Wè Wobé mask - SOLD OUT
African mask from which features a powerful expression. We find the protruding front dear to sculptors in the southwest of Côte d'Ivoire and the adjacent region of Liberia. The mouth is also disproportionate and extremely hairy. This piece of African art is decorated with upholstery nails, recurring elements on the most beautiful masks. The appearance of this piece could allow it to be attributed to the workshop of Dyeponyo.
