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 ... morefalse 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 has 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 have any questions please contact me through eBay. Thanks for visiting and happy bidding!

Or"pombibele, a form unique, even ubiquitous, to the Senufo. The so-called"rhythm pounders" are used at the funerals of important members of the"Poro" Society, a powerful regulatory force throughout much of coastal West Africa. Though these Pombibele are associated with loud booming noises when groups of them are struck on the hard ground, many of them are actually carried, and not used to make sounds at all. The Senufo are the dominant culture in Cote d'Ivoire. And also extend across the border into Mali. The Senufo carve numerous male and female figures in a variety of positions, as well as many remarkable masks. Most adhere rather strictly to a known set of proportions, but some can be quite abstract. It is thought that many Senufo artworks are produced by"professional" carvers known to the village, and this accounts for the rather standardized"look" found in the majority of their figural objects. This is a fine example of Senufo art that would be a good addition in any collection. Recommended Reading: Kerchache's ART OF AFRICA. I have examined this piece and agree with the description.

Most adhere rather strictly to a known set of proportions, but some can be quite abstract. It is thought that many Senufo artworks are produced by"professional" carvers known to the village, and this accounts for the rather standardized"look" found in the majority of their figural objects. Among the Senufo statues of this category are known as rhythm pounder(Pombibele) figures. The rhythm pounders were used in both funeral and initiation ceremonies. A skillfully-crafted example of one of the most famous of West African sculptures. The so-called"rhythm pounders" are used at the funerals of important members of the"Poro" Society. A powerful regulatory force throughout much of coastal West Africa. They are associated with loud booming noises when groups of them are struck on the ground, many of them are actually carried, and not used to make a sound at all.

The few known male and female rhythm pounder pairs are thought to represent the primordial couple. Referred to as'Pombibele' which means"those who gave birth. Typically it is female figures are represented and it has been speculated that these single figures are one of a pair, the location of the other being unknown. According to Anita Glaze(in Barbier, ed. 1993: 44) however, not all funerary sculpture is commissioned as a pair, nor do all relatively large scale processional display figures necessarily belong to the primordial couple category. A poro society may possess one or more single figures that were initially commissioned as a result of a member's visionary encounter with spirits in dreams or while alone in the fields. These pounders were traditionally used at funeral ceremonies for Poro soc

The woman’s right knee has broken off. There is some minor damage to the edges of the drum skin from rodents. Minor cracks due to age. Tips of both feet have broken off and have been refinished. A few scratches from age and use. The drum stands about 41 in. high and at its largest about 15 in across. The body of the drum has carvings of a lizard. A snake, two birds, a long nicked turtle, and several things that might be the senufo bird. The long necked turtle and the lizard can be seen on a drum by the same tribe. The animals on the drum are regarded as the first animals on earth. ... moreThe drum sits on top of a fat woman on a pedestal. She has sacrificial markings on her breasts and stomach. The drum head is fashioned from animal hide attached with rawhide. Stretched over protruding pegs. T he Senufo are known for their wood carving. A craft practiced by the males of the tribe. However, women are regarded as providing the strength and power of the tribe, thus the symbol of the woman supporting the drum, just as she supports the tribe. These ritual drums were used to summon spirits at special occasions, such as at funerals or at ceremonies initiating young men into adulthood. The Senufo are made up of a number of diverse subgroups who migrated into their current location from the north during the 15th and 16th centuries. Unlike their neighbors to the north they have remained relatively sheltered from intrusive cultures including the Songhai and Hausa. Although they have certainly borrowed knowledge from their neighbors. They have not had to fear constant attacks and social upheaval. Terry Reed is an accomplished woodcarver with a solid understanding and appreciation for cultural subjects and themes, and a practiced eye for detail. Terry wore many

And French colonial authorities recognized the quality of the objects and brought them back to France. Soon after artists and others of the avant-garde began collecting Senufo art. This medium-sized figure, 21 inches in height, has all the hallmarks of a classic Senufo sculpture in terms of details and the facts of obvious age and use. Female figures appear during different ceremonies, and unless one knows the specific context of the figure it is often difficult to name the specific use and name of the figure. Figures such as this may have been commissioned by the male"Poro Society" or the female"Tykpa(Tykepa)Society, both which were concerned with initiations, funerals and social control. She may also have been a Yasungo, a shrine figure or one of a male-female pair representing the first couple known collectively as"Kasingele. What ever her use and appearance, she is a beautifully carved figure. I have examined this piece and agree with the description. Niangi Batulukisi. PhD. 82046* All content.
