Por Abdul Aziz Mohamadu, esta imponente máscara está tallada y pintada a mano. La cara es marrón y negra, mientras que el aluminio ricamente grabado añade hermosas texturas. "Esta máscara es utilizada por varios pueblos pigmeos del Congo, antes conocido como Zaire. Los cazadores usan la máscara para disfrazar sus rostros y esto les ayuda a capturar su presa", explica el artesano. el lo nombra Latú, que significa "disfraz".

Abdul is such a talented craftsman and artist, as well. I have had this beautiful box sitting on my coffee table for quite some time now. My apologies to Abdul for the overdue review. Thanks again, Abdul!

The mask lacks vibrance. The colors are dull. Very Primitive in nature. The red doesnt appear as vivid as the photo. The size is nice. I recognize that one cant duplicate a mask over and over exactly due to it being handmade.
