A rough but extremely old Himalayan mask, just the eyes are wide open and underlined by a thin carved line, the mouth just shows carved teeth, the noose is flat .

This mask has been for sure collected from communities where Bothia people are mixed with hindu casts in the very remote district of Simik ...click for details
