- Bamun Kwifo Society Helmet Mask from Northern Cameroon #323
- This mask was likely created for the Kwifo, a secret Male Society of the Bamun People. The face of the wearer would have been hidden within a costume of the Kwifo. The Kwifo Society enforces the Laws of the King, preserves Social Order, and maintains Ancestral Values. In effect, they are a Police Force answerable to the King that carries out orders and punishments at night.
- In fact, the word Kwifo literally means "night". They usually perform in large groups of 8 to 30 people, accompanied by musical instruments, in particular drums, rattles, and the xylophone, all the while maintaining their anonymity by wearing masks like this example. When they make special appearances at Memorials to Kwifo Members, they are especially impressive and received with awe and reverence.
- Bamun Kingdom, ca. mid-20th century.
A wood Helmet Mask of sizeable form displaying an oversized head crowned by a towering, openwork headdress. The expressive visage presents generously lidded, almond-shaped eyes beneath arched brows, a broad nose, and full lips parted to reveal 2 rows of sharp, jagged teeth. His cheeks are adorned with incised cruciform designs, likely representing ceremonial scarification. A petite pair of pointed ears sits just below the elaborate headdress, which is comprised of 3 horizontal rows of openwork, geometric patterns flanked by the zigzag top and bottom peripheries. A rich, espresso-hued pigment envelops the entirety of the piece, save for the fierce teeth, which are white. - Measurements: 19.2" H x 9.5" W (48.8 cm x 24.1 cm)

Nice Phone mount
Great phone mount—stable, easy to use, and gets the job done!
I’ve been using this phone mount for a few weeks now, and it’s exceeded my expectations. It holds my phone securely, even on bumpy roads, and the adjustable arm makes it super easy to get the right angle. Installation was a breeze—took less than 2 minutes. The grip is strong without scratching the phone, and it feels sturdy overall. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a reliable mount!

Perfect Phone Mount: Secure, Versatile, and Easy to Install!
This phone mount has truly exceeded my expectations! It’s incredibly easy to install and holds my phone securely in place, providing total peace of mind while driving. What really sets this mount apart is its impressive versatility—I've never seen anything quite like it. The base attaches firmly to the air vent, and the adjustable arm allows me to position my phone precisely where I want it, with the freedom to tilt it up, down, left, or right. Plus, it doesn’t interfere with air flow from the AC, which is a huge bonus.
Although my wife's phone case isn't MagSafe-compatible, the included metal ring works seamlessly with it, and my MagSafe case connects just as smoothly.
I couldn’t recommend this product more—it’s been an absolute game-changer for us! This is a personal purchase, and I’m thrilled with it. I’ll be sure to update if anything changes.

Secure and great fit
I gave this product a chance and it did not disappoint! I did not need to read any instructions for installation and was able to quickly and easily figure it out. Installation takes less than 5 minutes. Just align the mount to the top corner of your tesla screen and turn the dial to adjust the tightness. Once tightness is set, just test to see if it’s really fitted by wiggling it around to check for looseness. I like the fact that I can adjust the angles of the mount easily. My phone can be angles to be on top or side of the Tesla screen. When driving, my phone does not shake one bit. When it’s time to remove my phone, just give it a quick pull to detach and that’s it. The build quality is also very nice and I like the design of it overall. I think it’s a well thought out product. Definitely would recommend to friends and family with Teslas.

Good mount but…
This is a solid mount for the Tesla monitor but the mounting points on the corner of screen caused my screen protector to bubble up. I had to return it unfortunately.

Tesla 😋😉 jeep phone mount.
Bought this to go in my jeep, perfectly attached to the corner of the screen of the screen, the only down side is since my screen raises and lowers over time with the vibration of the jeep it does make the screen slide down. But the magnet holds the phone very well as long as it is aligned properly to the back of the phone. I know it say tesla mount but my choice of smart stereo for my jeep is not a flush mount, it sticks out and has a cd player in the deck. As well the screen raises and lowers for access to to the cd player. So perfect for my jeep.
