Flame-like images dance on the forehead of this enigmatic visage. Lavishly-embellished with brass repoussé, the sese wood mask curves to form a strong profile. Gaunt lips bare even rows of teeth. Juliana Akandas designs an image thought to bring good tidings among the Akan people of Ghana. She names it Ahuntor, which means "peace."

"Very Unusal"
This is a very unique and well made mask, love the various textures used by the artist. The weight of this piece is very substantial. The name given by the artist appealed to me as an individual.
