Mask3323/1

Carved and painted wood mask. Dome-shaped head with two large curved horns - one orange, and the other off-white. Below the horns, on either side, are two large folded ears. On top of the dome, two small raised circular eyes, separated by a triangular design, which extends into a large human-like nose. The flat mouth is wider the the head, and has a wide opening between the jaw. Two holes are drilled through the rim of the mask on each side, with a string tied through the top two holes.
