Elegance and legacy — a Baule Mblo mask honoring spirit and form.
This finely carved African mask comes from the Baule people of Côte d’Ivoire, part of the respected Mblo tradition. Mblo masks are used in ceremonial dance performances and often represent admired individuals, carrying beauty, dignity, and social grace.
This Baule mask features a balanced, symmetrical face, half-lidded eyes, and a long tapering jaw. The prominent central crest rises from the forehead, symbolizing spiritual wisdom or ancestral lineage. The cheek and jawline are framed by angular triangular extensions, while a carved rectangular motif is set on the upper forehead. The entire surface has a warm, speckled patina with faded blue-green pigment accents, creating texture and depth.
These portrait masks were traditionally worn during tribute performances, carried by dancers who brought the spirit of the honored figure to life. Today, they remain one of the most celebrated forms of African sculpture.
A beautiful piece for wall display, collectors of tribal design, or those seeking symbolic African heritage.
Stand not included.
