Kwele Pibibuze 'Spirit' Mask – Gabon
Add a sense of calm, architectural beauty to your space with this Kwele Pibibuze mask. Hand-carved by the Kwele people from the rainforests of Gabon and the Republic of the Congo, this mask represents a human spirit and is celebrated for its sophisticated, minimalist geometry.

- Serene Presence: Its slender, almond-shaped eyes and quiet expression were traditionally intended to "cool" social tensions and bring harmony to the community.
- Ritual History: Historically used in the Bwete ceremony, these masks were central to maintaining unity and protecting the village from malevolent forces.
