Description

Elegant African Adone Antelope Mask
This piece was purchased in the 1980's at an antique fair in Sandwich, Illinois. Age estimates of the piece have ranged from 60 to over a hundred years old, but I don't really know.
Hand-carved wood; pigments
Approx. size 32" high x 16" (top of ear to tip of nose) x 4" wide
This a vintage item; cracks, minor repairs and tiny holes from insects (no bugs live there now!)
are not flaws but part of the item's story
Smoke-free home
Nothing has been altered on the piece; as originally purchased
If you have any questions, I'm happy to answer what I can.
Thank you!
