Typical mask of this ethnos group. The sculptors (blacksmiths)
Bambara are indeed very known for their masks cimiers
zoomorphes of antelopes or gazelles.
This type of mask is carried by a secret society of which
they bear the name: Ti Wara or Tji Wara.
Beautiful old object, some wood glares on the mane and an ear.
