Nepal - Ethnographic Fierce Ornate Wood & Metal Nepalese Mask

Description

This is the powerful mask which hails from Nepal. I believe is is some of fierce, protective deity...but whatever - it's magnificent! It measures about 11" long and 7" wide...and is carved wood covered in pressed copper, brass and silver adornments.
The detailing is fantastic with some of the metal pieces, too - skulls and other great designs...A very nice piece to behold!
