Yam mask collected in the village of Maprik in Papua New Guinea. Yam masks are used to dress up the most beautiful yams selected at harvest time. This wickerwork mask represents the head of the yam, a highly symbolic way of proving that these sacred tubers do indeed have a soul... The very particular shape of this specimen seems to have served more as a headdress, affixed to the end of a tuber. Braided rush. Sold with a presentation base. Free shipping.
