Old Bambara mask, tribal used.
The Bambara (or Bamana) are workers of the land in the savanna and with more than three million people, the largest ethnic group in Mali. The social organisation of the Bambara is traditionally divided into six age groups. By means of instruction, examinations and initiations, one advances from one age group into the next. At these initiation festivals, the masks belonging to the respective age groups make their appearance.
Fair condition, old repair on top as pictured. Tribal used mask. Careful registered sending, combined shipping possible.
