Story behind the product~ A well-danced work of tribal art, comprised of wood, textile, beads, cowrie shells and fibre. The Lele people occupy the western portion of the Kuba kingdom in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Their art is not well-known and is similar to Kuba styles with the exception of the masks which generally have a flattened shape. Such masks were used in initiation ceremonies for boys, funerals, or rituals concerning the sacred king. The detailed workmanship and and imaginative combination of materials are simply astonishing.
