Ivoirian wood masks, 'Men from Afar' (pair)
Named Ye Firi Ekyiri, "we come from afar," this pair of masks expresses a distant allure. Hand-carved from sese wood, the natural contours are adorned with an intriguing application of color. Brass and aluminum accents - chosen for their tensile strength - further complement the fascinating design with hammered delicacy. Designer Madam Adwoa's artistry is representative of the Guro tribe of Cote d'Ivoire.
