One thing I got for the house during my trip to the Bahamas was a wall mask. I picked it up during our stop in Freeport.
The Bahamians have a number of masks available. They have tribal, wooden hanging (such as one I got) and some related to their Junkanoo festivals.

It looks like a Tiki mask, but those are associated from the Pacific South Seas in Polynesia. The Bahamas are in the Caribbean in the Atlantic Ocean.
The mask now hangs in my den.
