With a stern look and a scraggly beard, this mask is sure to add a unique accent to your home decor. Emmanuel Opoku Asante presents this mask of West African origin, meticulously crafted by hand from sese wood and jute, and featuring a rustic finish. The design is named after the Dan people of Liberia, who wear these masks during male initiation ceremonies and believe that the masks embody spirits.

"The Dan Mask is Awesome!"
I received this mask yesterday and expected to hear the Spirits chanting as I did when the Dan Protector mask arrived, or the sweet sounds of love from the Northern Water Spirit Mask. But the Dan Mask was quiet. A simple, pay attention to me, is all they said. When these masks arrive I tell the Spirit, we serve Jesus in this house. They comply, and we live happily.

"Never Feel Alone"
Democracy and unity, a beautiful reminder of this sculpture to meditate upon when feeling alone and hopeless -- We are never alone and hope is very much alive, showing itself at the most tiniest sliver of love, accompanied by strength and perseverance. Love this piece!
