Full Body mask Kobeua people, Northwest Amazon, Brazil 60 inches, pounded bark cloth and grasses This type of mask covers most of the dancer’s body. We believe it is used for an initiation ceremony. If it seems a bit small, it’s because the average height of an Amazon Indian is much less than that of a European or North American. Very light in weight, this impressive body mask can be displayed on a stand or hung from the ceiling. Good condition, though there are a few holes and tears that are hardly noticeable. This mask is illustrated in the catalog Masks from Around the World- The Collection of Robert A. Ibold. A free copy will be included with your purchase.
