Shelled African Punu Mask
$270.00
An authentic, one of a kind African Punu mask. This hand-carved, Shelled Punu, has all the classic markings of the African Punu women. The diamond-shape scarification marks on the forehead and temples are sacrificial and are performed to signify beauty and social status. The elaborate Punu hairstyles suggest that the wearer is wealthy as her hair has not been flattened by the need to carry goods.
