Native American Masks the Pacific Northwest Coast

 

Kwakiutl Indian Mask

Pacific Northwest Coast, North America

12 inches, painted wood

Done in the style of the Kwakiutl of Vancouver Island, this is a strikingly beautiful carved wood reproduction of a traditional laughing mask probably carved in Indonesia. This particular mask is illustrated in the book, "Masks from Around the World." An authentic, old mask that looks as nice as this would sell for five figures! Of course, the back would be much different.
