The unique item shown on the image is the exact item you will receive.
The Cameroon Grasslands can be divided into three smaller subgroups, one of which is the Bamum. Within the Bamum complex there are numerous smaller ethnic groups, which are loosely affiliated with one another and share many historical and political similarities while retaining separate identities. Recognizing the importance of the skull, representations of the head are found in nearly all decorated utilitarian items. This item seems to represent the unique Bamum Helmet Mask, with the royal decoration on top and the face casted in bronze. With a grining mouth and full cheeks.
