Description : A Very Old Ibo Face Mask
Eastern Nigeria
Typically one would expect masks of this type to have white faces, but there is no indication that this was ever true of this example. Residue of old white pigmentation on teeth. A fine example, probably a generation older than masks typically encountered.
