Baule style mask

The superciliary arches meet at the birth of the right nose, the eyes with half-closed eyelids are slit, the protruding mouth inscribed in a rectangle is open on sharp teeth. The small naturalistic ears are placed on the periphery of the face, the latter surrounded by two collars on either side of the lower part of the face. The whole is decorated with numerous scarifications. The hairstyle is a composition in itself. Thick braids whose ends are sculpted with naturalistic faces, and at the top a bun in a shell.
