Kwele “Ekuk” heart mask from Gabon, carved in wood with the classic sweeping horn frame that curls around the face. These masks were traditionally hung in the village during Bwete rites to calm tensions, settle unrest and restore harmony after illness, conflict or loss. Their presence was believed to invite protective forest spirits and bring a sense of balance back to the community.
This example has a soft, timeworn surface with traces of white kaolin, a colour associated with peace and clarity. The narrow eyes and gentle expression give it a quiet stillness that adds to the mask’s grounding feel. A striking heart-shaped form with real age and character, perfect as a symbolic piece for a home that values calm and protection.
Set of four antique silver plated scallop moulds. Beautiful crisp detail in the shell pattern with sizes ranging from 3 cm to 8 cm. These were traditionally used for patisserie or decorative food presentation, though they also make lovely trinket dishes or styling pieces.

Both drawers run smoothly for their age. A characterful piece with an industrial look and a hint of haberdashery style. Ideal for storing stationery, tools, or small items.
