This is the rating and price for Anthropomorphic Helmet Mask



Description : wood, black paint, kaolin, feathers, base This mask combines human and animal-like features reminiscent of an ape. Its physiognomy appears threatening, which is reinforced by the black, thickly encrusted patina and suggests that it was once used in the fight against witchcraft.
