This quiet visage is a symbol of peace among the Guro people of Cote d'Ivoire, where such masks represent the spirits of the underworld. A slender headdress that culminates in a circle and a stylized beard give balance to the lovely design. Salihu Ibrahim carves the piece from African sese wood to symbolize peace.

"Wonderful mask"
I was very excited to receive this mask. It makes a great impression against the white wall where I wanted to place it. I love the geometric design and quirkiness of the face which evokes laughter and good humor for me.
