This Old Unusual Black Face and Red Lips Punu Mask is from the Equatorial People settled in the Southwest of Gabon. Punu masks have realistic featues, with protruding pursed lips, high-domed foreheads, and characteristic rigid high coiffures reflecting the Punu women's hair styles. Many Punu masks can be recognized by raised diamond-shape scarification marks on the foreheads and temples. The scarification marks on the temples are thought to be associated either with a female ancestor, or with a southern sub-group of the Punu tribe. A dancer on tall stilts performing a ceremony would wear such a mask tilted forward on his head. This Old Punu Mask is One of a Kind, shows age and wear and would be lovely as Home Decor or a Gift for a man or a woman.
