Remarkable African carved wooden mask, attributed to Mali and dated to the 19th century, featuring an elongated oval face, finely sculpted facial features, and an elaborate raised hairstyle.
The mask displays a dark brown to black patina, with visible wood grain, carved details, and signs of age. Its almond-shaped eyes, slender nose, softly defined lips, and decorative facial markings give it a striking sculptural presence. A distinctive example of traditional African craftsmanship, ideal for an ethnographic collection or as a decorative wall piece.
