Forehead Flex Songye Tribe Mask

This mask originates from the Songye people of the Congo, a culture known for powerful, spiritual carvings used in protection rituals and societal ceremonies. Characterized by its deep striations, protruding circular mouth, and dynamic geometry, this piece stands out with a rare and arresting double-figure forehead motif—an uncommon detail believed to enhance the mask’s spiritual potency. Hand-carved from wood, this mid-20th-century mask is both a work of art and a vessel of cultural legacy. This piece comes mounted on a newly made custom iron stand for a modern display—yet can also be detached and mounted on a wall for a more traditional presentation. One of one.
