Description
A finely carved Yaure Moon Mask from Côte d’Ivoire, with its iconic circular face form symbolizing cycles of life and renewal. The mask shows elegant proportions with almond-shaped eyes, a narrow nose, and a small pursed mouth. Subtle scarification marks enhance its beauty, while the radiating geometric corona adds a striking cosmological element. Finished with a deep, dark patina, this mask embodies the refined artistry of the Yaure and makes a powerful addition to any collection or display.
