Q: It is made of wood, sheep skin, real horns, and is 16" high.
I would guess it's Eastern European, possibly a Kukeri mask from Bulgaria. Ian, 12-31-11,

You may be right, however I'm guessing it's a Buso mask from
neighboring Hungary. The Croatians in those areas, as well as
other ethnic groups, wear these scary masks for New Year
celebrations. You sent this pic in on the perfect day! Thank
