"Wurkum Dance Crest"
Dance crest from the Wurkum in Nigeria which represents a kind of figurative mask with the eyes and mouth represented by the inclusion of cowries (shells symbolizing wealth). We also find two small circular mirrors at the level of the nose as well as the presence of animal horns and a charge with seeds on the "skull" of the face. This is a fetish dance crest. The object has a slightly crusty sweat patina and is quite old. It is authentic and has no restoration.
