Old Swiss mask

size unknown, carved wood, animal horns

Q:  Attached a couple of photos of a mask I thought may be Northwest coast American. Can you tell me?  Bryn, 5-25-10   7

A: It is not NWC American. I see hints of the Himalayas, SE Asia, even Europe. But the truth is that I just don't know. Let's hope that someone will recognize it and share their knowledge.
