Eket mask

Eket people, Nigeria

12 inches, stained wood

Very handsome mask with a fine patina. There are a few chips on the nose and protruding eyebrows. The Eket are part of the Ibibio cultural group. Though this beautiful mask looks like a classic antique, it is actually a carefully crafted reproduction.
