An authentic African mask named “Sankofa” which is a word from the Twi language of Ghana which translates in English to “Go Back and Get it”. It represents the need to never forget your roots or your history as you move forward and is associated with the African Proverb “It is not wrong to go back for that which you have forgotten”.
This mask measures approximately 19 inches (height), 4.7 inches (width) and 2.4 inches (depth). It is made out of Sese wood, features red and black colors and the Sankofa Bird adinkra symbol.
Handcrafted and imported from Ghana, your purchase helps support local Ghanaian artisans, their family, and community. Each item is handmade so there may be slight and subtle differences in size, color, and pattern. These slight differences are what makes each African Mask unique and a true work of art.
