Male performers wear these hand-carved portrait masks during dances and festivities. They are a staple of the Baule society. The Baule natives carefully constructed the artistic characteristics of each mask as a visual lexicon that illustrates what it means to be a good, honorable, respected, and beautiful person in their community. 

Masks make stunning sculptural ornamental sculptures that look well in any space. Set up individually or in groups to make a statement with your styling. Looks perfect on a console or sideboard.
