Condition

Very good condition overall. As visible on the catalogue illustration, there is a crack and an old native repair on the proper left side of the mask. There are some small losses on the edge of the mask and archaic metallic eyes are missing. Beautiful black patina with red nuances on the sharped parts.Wear consistent with great age of the piece.
