I was under another house in the neighborhood a couple of days ago and found this interesting tribal mask.
The owner of the building has no idea where it came from and why it was under there, but he said I could keep it.

I guess I have some research to do in regards to whether it is a reproduction(tourist type) or the real deal.
Interesting to say the least.

Cheers,
Doug

I wouldn't bring that in to the house man. I won't go into detail, but it is not a good idea.There is a reason in was "under" the house.

Is it all made of wood? And what kind of wood if it is?

Research it good , some of those masks are worth a good bit of money whether it be old or new , the old is without doubt the better of the two .

I'm thinking it is likely a modern decorative piece. It looks like something that would be right at home on the wall of a 1970s Black Panther, framed by ugly gaudy fake elephant tusks on little pedestals, images of Lions or other exotic beasts, a cheap fake cheetah skin or two, and large pictures of nubile nude women of African ancestry, proudly sporting huge afros.
