Mask Mahou 90cm - Dan - Côte d'Ivoire

This type of mask belongs to the Koma family, whose function is to detect or eliminate any form of sorcery: the Koma Ba (female mask) attracts harmful beings, the Koma Su (male mask) destroys them. The hairstyle of this mask would suggest that it is female. When a Koma Ba mask has a crusty patina (which is not the case here) it indicates that it has received offerings. This mask is supposed to contain magical substances that protect its wearer who, recall, must summon to him the forces and the evil beings. Condition: perfect, no signs of wear or damage, decorative mask.
