Salihu Ibrahim crafts an extraordinary monkey mask with the artistic stylizations of Liberia's Dan people. Reserved for durbars, its purpose is to entertain those who have traveled miles and anxiously await the arrival of the chiefs. Ibrahim carves the sese wood mask by hand and adorns it with white clay details and jute.

Had my eye on this item for over a year and finally decided to get it. Am I glad! Salihu Ibrahim is my favorite Novica artist and I have a few other pieces of his. The size of the picture needed to capture the mane doesn t do it full justice. Beautiful in hand. Thank you for another exquisite piece of art.
