Kuba Bushoong Bwoom Royal Mask, Kongo #887 Materials: wood richly decorated with cowrie shells and beads. There are more than twenty different types of masks that function within the men's initiation society. Bwoom’s specific identity varies according to different versions of the myth. He may represent the king’s younger brother, a person of Twa descent, or a commoner. Embodying a subversive force within the royal court, the Bwoom masquerade is performed in conflict with the mask representing Woot. Good condition with traces of tribal use and great colorful appearance. Measurements: 43×36×35 cm Condition: Excellent
