    Description

    A GENUINE AFRICAN WOOD HAND CARVED AND PAINTED FACE MASK.
    IT'S WELL MADE AND STURDY WITH A NICE WOOD GRAIN PATTERN, UNTOUCHED PATINA WITH TWISTED WIRE AROUND THE FACE AND HEAD.
    ABOUT 14" LONG, CLOSE TO 5" WIDE AND TO 2 THICK  AND ONE OF A KIND!!!
    THIS WAS PART OF A COLLECTION FROM A DOCTOR WHO TRAVELED MUCH AND LIKELY MID CENTURY. NO REAL DAMAGE BUT THE PAINT ON THE FACE, EASY TO REPAIR AND I LEFT THE "OLD PATINA" ON IT  BUT IT NEEDS SOME WOOD OIL TO SHINE.
    EBAY AUTOLISTS THIS AS 1600-1900, NOT CORRECT BUT I CAN'T GET RID OF IT.
    EARLIEST MASK WAS FROM THE 1700S!
    DON'T VOTE FOR THE DEMOCROOKS WHO LIE CHEAT AND STEAL UNLESS YOU WANT TO PAY HIGHER TAXES AND LOSE EVEN MORE FREEDOMS..........WHAT ARE YOUR VALUES???
