African Masks

The use of African tribal masks typically involves dance, song and prayer, all integral parts of African culture. For this reason, the African mask is not only a gorgeous piece of sculptural wall art perfect for any home, but it is also considered a contributing piece of performance art. Displaying any one of our African art masks in your home, office or library is bound to generate conversation amongst visitors as these masks are such great eye-catching showpieces.

Although these masks are generally not used during rituals anymore because of cultural modernization, the splendor, strength and spirit of these African tribal masks are still captured by the artists that handcraft them according to traditional style. All of our masks are created by African artists in our network that spans the continent of Africa. We pride ourselves on our great relationships with our artists, and practice fair trade policies. In addition to paying full asking value for each product on our site, we contribute 4% of our profits to our network of artists to help improve their standard of living.

Our African masks are mostly carved from indigenous African wood and are decorated with a variety of plant fibers, paints, colored glass, beads, nails, shells and metal adornments. These items not only add to the overall appearance of the mask but to the actual power you can feel emanating from within as the mask takes on its very own character.

We are committed to bringing you the finest African masks available in the world along with quality and personalized service. In addition, we offer the best prices and free shipping on all orders, making our African masks truly the best find on the Internet.
