“Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a Mask and he will tell you the truth” Oscar Wilde (1854 -1900)
A Gallery of Masks
The Masks shown here represent the main design shapes and are an indication of styles and traditional colours. They are all made in Carta Pesta (Papier Mache`) which is the traditional material used for hundreds of years.
The price of an individual mask will vary with the amount of detail and the decorative materials used. For example Gold leaf and Cockerel feathers are expensive and a request for a particular colour may have to be made to order and cost more than a mask from stock Certain feathers are very expensive and white feathers are hard to obtain.
