EXHIBITED large 25" Senufo helmet mask "Kopnyungo" Fire-spitter, no reserve
This is a large p olka dotte Senufo helmet mask"Kopnyungo" kno w in the West as a Fire-spitter. Very impressive array of tee th and tusks in nice contrast to two cute chameleons on top. In 2009 portions of my collection were exhibited at the University of Maryland's Mosely Gallery- the exhibition was called"Honoring the Ancestors. Only 170 of my 300+ items could fit in the gallery. This mask was exhibited in that exhibition. I have included photos of that installation as well as other items I am selling or will be selling soon. Janiform(meaning 2-faced) example would have been worn at Poro ceremonies including funerals and would also have fought sorcery( dee bele) and harmful spirits( nikw’abele) At the top of this helmet is a small cup held by two chameleons. The mask was not complete until magical substances( wah) were ... moreplaced into this receptacle. Additional Information: A superb piece. With matched four-horned faces on either side, one shared pair of ears, and paired figures on top pulling on the bowl which would have held magical elements. Red and white pigments have been applied over the black, but use has worn them away somewhat. Inner patina suggests wear. This large helmet mask known as"Kopnyungo. meaning literally a funeral head mask is worn by senior members of Poro at funerals of deceased and honored members. Large composite masks danced by the Senufo symbolically incorporate a number of different animal motifs to create an image that is aggressive and powerful. The crocodile mouth at the front of this mask incorporates warthog tusks coming out of the upper jaw represent the uncontrolled forces of the bush. This mask is most probably used by Senufo farmers and when worn the dancer would look out through the opening of the mouth. This is an excellent example of Senufo masks.

Exhibited Senufo Kpelie Mask Kepelie Kpeli-yehe Ivory Coast and Mali- no reserve
A beautifully symmetric Senufo Kpelie mask. The depiction of palm nuts at the top of the mask symbolize the wood carving profession. I purchased this three years ago from a private French collector. They described it as 19th century but I believe it is from the second half 20th century. I could be wrong. In 2009 portions of my collection were exhibited at the University of Maryland's Mosely Gallery- the exhibition was called"Honoring the Ancestors. Only 170 of my 300+ items could fit in the gallery. This mask was exhibited in that exhibition. You can see it hanging on the wall. I have included photos of that installation as well as other items I am selling or will be selling soon. This Kpeli-yehe mask combines elements of Senufo mythology and culturally known symbols. The horns are those of the powerful buffalo important to Poro ... moreinitiates. The small legs below the chin symbolize the hornbill bird. One of the Senufo primordial creatures and the first to be hunted by men. The heart-shaped face and protruding lips are style elements of Senufo sculpture. Kepelie masks would dance a funeral of elder women and men, the newly dead that have now joined the ancestors.The Senufo are a large dispersed population living primarily in Ivory Coast and Mali in small self-administered villages supporting themselves primarily as farmers. Though generally autonomous the villages are joined through a shared menâ's secret society known as Poro or Pondo that is responsible for the initiation of young boys and men into different levels of society and to exercise social control and instruct members and initiates in religious wisdom and knowledge of the bush spirits. Women have their counterpart to this ion their divination society known as Sando. Among the Senufo people funerary ceremonies serve as a primary occasion for the appearance art during ritual displays. It is during the funerals of senior members of the Poro society and woman's society that dances to celebrate the life of the deceased. Size: Height: 13&qu

A large ethnic group extending across Cote d'Ivoire. Burkina Faso, Mali, and Ghana, the Senufo are revered among African art collectors, if only for a single mask known as the Kponyungo or Firespitter mask.

This society is responsible ... morefor maintaining the religious, artistic, and historical traditions of a lineage, and it is for this society that the majority of Senufo art is created. Traditionally danced by men. While playing the character of a woman, the Senufo kpelie mask is a well known artform among the Senufo, characterized by its various perimeter projections, and humanoid features. Their various projections and strange appearance are said to represent the inherent imperfection in humans and humanity. The adornment on the crown area generally features an animal carving, and though the meaning of all of these has been lost, they are generally said to indicate a particular societal caste, with birds such as these said to indicate the smith's caste. The mask is in good condition, still bearing strong pigmentation, though small chips and breaks have occurred on a few of the various projections. A mane of raffia fiber surrounds the mask, and its perimeter is decorated with cowrie shells, widely recognized in west African cultures as a sign of prosperity. This is a truly beautiful piece, and it displays exceptionally well. Dimensions are 16" x 7.5" x 3" And it weighs in at just over

Mali: Extremly Rare African Tribal used mask from the Senufo.
Large Tribal used African mask from the Senufo. Mali. Hand carved from a single piece of wood. Height: 37 cm. During the 16th century. The Songye migrated from the Shaba area, which is now the southern part of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Their history is closely linked to the Luba's, to whom the Songye are related through common ancestors. Having waged war against one another for a long time, the Songye and Luba later formed an alliance to fight the Arabs. They settled on the left bank of the Lualaba River, on a savanna and forest-covered plateau. Divided into many subgroups, the 150,000 Songye people are governed by a central chief assisted by innumerable secret societies. The Songye traditionally relied mostly on farming and hunting for subsistence. Because the rivers were associated with the spirits of deceased chiefs who ... morewere often buried in them. Fishing was not practiced except in times of great need. The artistic wares of the Songye, including pottery made by women and weaving and metalworking done by men, were traded extensively with their neighbors.

Reeds, leather, Approximate Age, Mid 20th century, Dimensions, Height is 46 inches, Overall Condition, Good, Damage/Repair, General wear, Additional Information: Africa continues to surprise with sculptures that are unique and objects that challenge. This exceptional figure has no equivalent in the literature on African Art so that the identification is based upon stylistic parallels. Itâs purpose is unknown and perhaps undocumented. The Senufo have a wide range of objects that were associated with the menâs Poro secret society. An additional factor leading to an identification among the Senufo is the shape of the head that is shown as a birdâs head and beak. For ... morethe Senufo the bird plays an important role during initiations. Planting ceremonies and funerals. The figure itself raises a number of questions that will be answered in time, meanwhile it will serve as a challenge when added to a collection.

Collectable Senufo Equestrian Figure, Burkina Faso / Ivory Coast
The Senufo produce a rich variety of sculptures. Mainly associated with the poro society. The sculptors and metalsmiths. Endogamous groups responsible for making the cult objects live on their own in a separate part of the village. The attitude shown toward them by other Senufo is a mixture of fear and respect, owing to their privileged relationship with the natural forces that they are capable of channeling in a sculpture. During initiations, headpieces are worn that have a flat, vertical, round or rectangular board on top decorated with paint or pierced work. Many wood carvings of male figures depict these headpieces, sometimes on rhythm pounders used by young initiates, who beat the earth to call upon the ancestors to take part in the ceremony and purify the earth. The carvers also produce ritual female statues. Including mother-and-child ... morefigures, as well as statuettes depicting bush spirits and supernatural beings and equestrian figures. Large statues representing hornbills(often seen also on masks) and used in the lo society as symbols of fertility are the standing birds called porpianong. Figures of the hornbill are used in initiation. And groups of birds on a pole are trophies for the best farmer. Figures of male and female twins and of horsemen are used in divination. These represent the spirit familiars enabling the divination process. The diviners themselves are women, forming the sandogo society. Shrine doors and drums are carved in relief. And small figures and ritual rings are cast in bronze. Carved approximately late 1970"s, early 1980's. Measures 9" by 19"

Senufo Kpelie Tribal Mask African Côte d'Ivoire Poro Cowrie Shells & Raffia
Normal 0 false false false EN-US JA X-NONE Senufo Kpelie Tribal Mask African Côte d'Ivoire Poro Cowrie Shells& Raffia Normal 0 false false false EN-US JA X-NONE Up for bid is an amazing and wonderfully crafted Senufo kpelie mask. Traditionally danced by men. While playing the character of a woman, the Senufo kpelie mask is a well known art form among the Senufo tribe, characterized by its various perimeter projections, and humanoid features. Their various projections and strange appearance are said to represent the inherent imperfection in humans and humanity. Although this ethnic group spans across a number of African countries, I believe this piece is from the Côte d'Ivoire(aka Ivory Coast) The mask measures approximately 13” long(sans raffia) x 6 1/4" wide. One of the projections has a minor chip on it and another ... morehas a minor crack. Having said this though, the mask is in great condition with a large amount of pigmentation still present. A mane of raffia fiber surrounds the mask, and its perimeter is decorated with cowrie shells, widely recognized in West African cultures as a sign of prosperity. I will start the bidding off at $35.00. Please see the shipping calculator for shipping and handling costs to your location. 14 day return policy if not satisfied(buyer pays for shipping) PayPal buyers only please.

If you would like to enquire about areas of interest that you cannot see in the gallery. Please contact me. Postage costs obviously vary. Depending on where the item is due to be sent. I am only able to give a' guesstimate' in my listing. Senufo beds are carved from single hardwood log. The wood is tight-grained.They were used for ceremonial purposes.

The wood has been'scooped out' creating heel rests. This Senufo bed is carved from a lovely tight grained heavy hardwood. Similar to mahogany and has a good patina. NB(The Senufo bed is the focus of this auction. However, it sits amongst other available tribal art, in my private viewing space) Measurements- 180 centimetres/ 71 inches long 53 centimetres/ 21 inches tall including headrest 20 inches/ 51 centimetres wide at headrest 56 centimetres/ 22 inches wide at foot of bed 40 centimetres/ 16 inches measuring from the foot of the bed.
