Very appealing refined carved African wooden mask from the Guro people of Ivory Coast. Beautifully designed with a warm expression. The mask is carved from one piece of wood and is in good condition. There is a bird on top of the mask. Good condition with colorful patina. The right horn seemed to be restored in the past.
