Kurent Mask3272/1

Large mask. A leatherette form fits over the head, and is covered with a thick pallet of sheep wool, a long red leather face emerging at centre. Face has a trunk-like nose painted with yellow, black and white stripes, and a long red and white tongue hanging below. A moustache of sorghum sits below the nose, with bean teeth attached. Goose feathers serve as large ears along the side of the head, and long black horns emerge above. Wool pompoms and bunches of pheasant feathers top the horns, and a wreath of ribbons and paper flowers span the distance between them.
