A common subject of African masks is the Painted Lady. It celebrates vision and age, hence its refined features. Hang on the wall or place on a table for a colourful and original addition to your home.
Traditional masks have been incorporated within African ceremonies and cultural celebrations for thousands of years. Today, these artefacts are often used as a stylistic counterpoint to contemporary styles, adding an artisanal element to modern designs.
