About the Item

African Stone Sculpture, Man Bust or Mask, 1960s. Small African stone statuette, standing at 11 cm tall, depicting a man's head and neck, resembling a traditional mask. The stone is heavy, dense, and smooth to the touch, with rich brown tones that give it an earthy style. The face of the figure is adorned with delicate, finely engraved geometric patterns, skillfully etched to outline the eyes, mouth, and forehead, which may also represent a headdress. These intricate carvings give the piece a refined quality. Beautiful patina with a lustrous finish !
