Where is this mask from?
Okay, Internet! Help me please! I found this in the thrift store. It is beautiful and obviously handcrafted. It seems old and the beading is pretty intricate. I would love to know where it’s from and learn more about it’s culture. If it is something that needs to be somewhere specific (I dunno, like a graveyard or a church or where ever), I have no problem finding a good home for it. But it seems too beautiful to let sit there in the thrift store gathering dust. And if it wouldn’t be disrespectful, I’m more than willing to give it a place in my home.
Can you help me? Any ideas? Reblog if you can. Email me for more photos. When/if I find out, I’ll let everyone know.
BOOST!
My ex-roommate had a mask exactly like this he found in Ghana. And I mean exactly alike. We’re not on good terms anymore, otherwise I’d ask him for the story behind it. >.> Sorry to be such little help.
