The Gewel Mask

At the heart of the MODA X TKS heritage collection is a rare midcentury excavation from central Senegal. The Gewel mask maintains the likeness of the traditional historian, storyteller, praise singer, poet, musician, leader, free thinker, the trend setter. As a decorative anchor to any space, the mask features an open back and extended hollow mouth that can be used as a sconce or gallery accent. Left in its original condition with remaining sediments from excavation present, the mask shows signs of a cherry-colored patina.
