  • African mask carving is an ancient tradition.
    Artist first creates the shape. Details are carved and fine metal work is applied. Color and patina are applied to give antique look.

      Well why would you buy it if you didn’t know its meaning?

    • @KrayZJoy
      @KrayZJoy 5 месяцев назад

      Masks have all kinds of different purposes and meanings. You should as the seller many questions: where did they get the mask? Who is the artist? Is it mass produced or an original? If you can get the original artist or where it came from, you can ask them, and maybe they can tell you.
