Description
Bwa chameleon crest mask in wood with a polychrome geometric pattern.
Among certain Voltaic ethnic groups, patterns of geometric lines coloured red white and black, communicate important spiritual messages.
The chameleon, due to its capacity to physically mutate in nature and adapt to its surroundings, is an important symbol of wisdom.
