Dear Georgina, Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. The presented object appears to be an African mask made out of painted wood with the measurements of 17 inches long and 6 inches wide . This mask was made for decoartive purposes in the second half of the 20th century. Comparable objects were recently offered and sold on the international auction market. This piece is in good condition and no severe damage is visible in the images provided. A fair market estimation would be between 30 to 60 USD. This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary. With kind regards, George
