This long and narrow mask is an original design by Robert Nortey and features ornate patterns embossed in aluminum. The mask is called "Agbeli," which to the Ewe people may mean "Life Exists," and also refers to the cassava nut, a staple of the diet in many a West African community. Robert Nortey carves the sese wood mask by hand and embellishes with painted details in light and dark brown, and blue.

I have many beautiful masks that I have ordered through Novica and love them, and this mask, ?To Foresee? is no exception! While it it one of my less embellished and detailed masks, it still makes a big impression. Heavy, substantial, and the beautiful reddish color really makes an impact! So happy to have it as part of my collection!
You can find our african wood mask 'Agbeli' by Robert Nortey in masks categories such as Ghanaian Masks and Wood Masks. Enjoy exploring these sections for other Novica treasures.
