Superb piece of Indigenous art just arrived in our Gallery - very large and powerful piece

Messenger of the Kumugwe - large cedar mask by Kolten Khasalus Grant from the house of Lilawagila from Kingcome Inlet, British Columbia's Pacific Northwest coast.

Please have a close look at this gorgeous grain in the cedar - Kolten picked the perfect piece of wood for this mask. The sanding and carving is close to perfection, very powerful and rich expression. 

Kolten even added teeth - using Operculum shell, beautifully shaped. The black horse hair he added to it, just adds to the strength of the face. And I just so much love the eyes - they are looking right through you. Kolten signed and dated the mask at the back, it's prepared for wall hanging. 

Measurements: 16 1/2" tall, 13 1/2" wide, 7" deep (not including the horse hair)
