The fish-shaped puppet masks are hand carved by the Bozo people, a fishing tribe from Mali in West Africa. The fish ornaments are a spiritual tribute to Faro<\/em>, the spirit of water in the Bozo tradition.<\/p>\n The decorative fish are sculpted in the wood, then hollowed to use as puppets and masks in processions or festivities. They are then hand-painted with bright colors. This characteristic allows us to present them on a stand or to display them on a piece of furniture or a shelf.<\/p>\n They can be found in all shapes and colors, from chubby colored fish to long and elegant fish. Each fish is different because they are unique artistic creations.<\/p>\n Why I love them:<\/p>\n I love this kind of ethnic and folk art decor. They are fun and cheerful. Plus, the fish have a significant sympathy capital.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Dimensions:<\/p>\n Both blue fishes are 16x5x6 in — 40x13xh17 cm<\/p>\n The long fish measures 40x7x7 in — 103x18xh18 cm.<\/p>\n You can order them with a base. But we will ask for some patience because we need time to make it.<\/p>\n These carved wooden fish are handmade. They can present imperfections which are the guarantee of their authenticity.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" African naive art and decoration<\/strong>: Carved Bozo fish in wood painted with bright colors.
