Description

Wooden painted wolf headdress. Two thin, shaped pieces of wood make up the long sides of the headdress, both painted with the image of a wolf head showing large, white bared teeth, an upraised snout, prominent eyes and a frilled scalp. The snout of the headdress is narrow and flares toward the rear, with two pieces of thick wood on the interior separating the sides. Metal nails hold the mask together. Colours used are brown, red, white, green, black, and blue.
