WILD MAN mask - by our late friend Harry T. Williams

Truly highest quality - beautiful piece of authentic Indigenous art by late First Nation artist Harry T. Williams from the Huu-ay-aht First Nations (Ditidath tribe)

You can clearly see how much Harry loved this art. The carving is superb - red cedar, hand carved, hand painted. Harry painted the mask in traditional colors, green, black and red, very powerful. He added cedar bark (lots of it !) and it just adds so much to the expression. Have a close look at the carving, it's really deep. The mask is dated 2013 but it's in fabulous condition - some very minor signs of aging on the cedar bark - a fantastic piece to add to any serious collection. Don't hesitate, I have a feeling this one will move fast....

Measurements: 14" x 15" x 7" incl. cedar bark, total height 32" incl. cedar bark

Meaning: The Bukwus is a supernatural ghost like figure, also known as the Wild Man of the Woods, please have a look at our "Symbology and legends tab" on the upper right under "about" - it's worth it and fun to read...
