These African tribal masks are sculpted from gold polymer clay. They are hanging from silver color ear wires. They measure 1 1/2 inches from bottom of the face to the top of the ear wires. The clay has been sealed with a satin glaze. Simple yet stunning.
For centuries, the tribal masks of Africa played an important role in the culture of its indigenous communities. Imbued with mysticism, masks were integral to rituals, festivals, initiation ceremonies and secret societies. The advent of colonialism and the ensuing disintegration of tribal homelands led to thousands of people migrating into cities. As traditional systems of living vanished, so did tribal identity. Masking ceremonies continue to exist, but no longer have the social significance they once did.
The ear wires pictured are not Hypo Allergenic and do contain nickel. If you require hypo allergenic ear wires I will be more than happy to switch them out for you. All you have to do during checkout is in the box that states "Note to Seller" add "please add hypoallergenic wires" to your order. I will replace the ear wires for you at NO additional cost to you. The ear wires will be replaced with ones that are 100 % pure surgical steel uncoated.

1 1/2 in from bottom of face to top of ear wires
