Songye Mask on Stand – Protective Tribal Sculpture from Congo
Command attention with this striking Songye Mask on Stand, a bold and spiritual sculpture handcrafted by the Songye people of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Traditionally used in rituals to ward off evil spirits and invoke ancestral protection, this mask now serves as a timeless piece of African art and heritage.
Origin & Spiritual Significance
The Songye mask is easily recognized by its angular features, striped face, and dramatic form — all designed to convey strength and spiritual power. It was once worn during initiation and cleansing ceremonies, often linked to the powerful “Bwadi Bwa Kifwebe” secret society.
Mounted for Modern Display
Presented on a sleek iron stand, this mask becomes a sculptural centerpiece for shelves, consoles, or art niches. Whether styled solo or among a collection of tribal decor, it adds depth, history, and conversation to your interior.
