Baoulé Mask – Elegance and Serenity of Akan Art

This Baoulé mask is a very beautiful piece of African art, recognized for the delicacy of its features, its mouth delicately protruding, and its half-closed eyes, signs of great serenity. Originating from the southeastern Côte d'Ivoire, the Baoulé people, belonging to the Akan group, express through their craftsmanship a peaceful and refined view of the world.

Unlike other African masks often laden with warrior or mystical symbolism, Baoulé masks are distinguished by their softness and elegance. They reflect a harmonious way of life, among the most stable in the region, and a rich artistic tradition where every detail matters.

Perfect for African art enthusiasts or collectors, this mask embodies the soul of a people and the beauty of an ancestral culture.
