Masks from Bali and Java for the Topeng, Wayang Wong, and Calon Arang classic dance dramas.

 

Popular Javanese mask

Topeng dance drama, Dieng, East Java

8 inches, painted wood

This character is a popular one from the traditional dance-drama that is performed all over the country. Though it is missing a fragment from the top edge of the head, it is still very handsome on the wall. No attempt has been made to antique it for the commercial market. It is a nice piece of authentic Javanese folk art at a very affordable price.
