Puissant masque figurant un visage humain surmont\u00e9 d’une coiffe en forme de cornes frontales retombant sur les joues. La face est recouverte d’un textile rouge, tandis que autour de la bouche, sur le menton et sur le pourtour sont encore clou\u00e9s des morceaux de peau animale. De la bouche entrouverte s\u2019\u00e9chappent des vraies dents qui donnent \u00e0 la figure une forte expressivit\u00e9. Le tissu rouge sur le visage indique qu’il s’agit d’un zakpei ge \u00ab <\/i>masque gardien de feu \u00bb. Les masques de feu sont charg\u00e9s de veiller \u00e0 ce qu’un incendie ne se d\u00e9clare dans le village, surveillant les feux domestiques. Le masque de feu peut aussi prendre la t\u00eate des op\u00e9rations lors d\u2019un incendie ou d\u2019un feu de brousse.
\nBelle patine profonde brune sur les cornes. Tr\u00e8s belle taille ancienne, traces de portage \u00e0 l’arri\u00e8re du masque. Trous rectangulaires de fixation de la coiffe.<\/p>\n
