African wood mask, 'Eco Akuchinyere'





By Megan
Very Cool
The woven headdress really sets this mask apart from others. The head portion is small so make sure to look at the product dimensions.
Ceramic mask, 'Maya Lord Kinich Aha'





By MGN62
A beautiful clay mask with tremendous detail
This is just one of the beautiful clay masks we selected for our tropical garden/pool area - along the fence line.
Wood mask, 'Face of a Warrior'





By Bonnie
Museum Quality Jaguar Warrior
I received Face of a Warrior today and truly love it. Jose Canil Ramos is a very talented artist. This mask will have a prominent place in my house and will be greatly admired by everyone who lays eyes on it. There are scores of jaguar warriors out there created by some very talented artists. I have another jaguar warrior mask, which I also love, but this mask is more dramatic and compelling. When I saw it, I had to have it. Kudos to a skillful and talented carver!
