African carved wooden mask with headdress, Fang style (Gabon)

African carved wooden mask with headdress – Fang style (Gabon) – 34 cm. Carved wooden mask in Fang style (Gabon), notable for its elongated silhouette and flared headdress that enhances its verticality. The face features two large light areas with oval contours, contrasting with the brown-black patina of the wood. A long straight nose structures the composition, while a mouth with generous lips adds relief to the whole. The sculpture is distinguished by the balance of its volumes, its bold graphics, and its nuanced patina, marked by signs of wear. A piece with a strong sculptural presence, particularly interesting in a contemporary interior, where the contrast between primitive arts and designer furniture makes perfect sense. Dimensions: H. 34 × W. 16.5 cm. Material: Carved and patinated wood. Origin: Africa, Fang style (stylistic attribution) Period: Undetermined. Condition: Patina and visible wear as shown in the photographs.
