This old tribal used ancestor figure originates from West Nepal.

The ethnographic groups in this area exist at the margins of Lamaistic Buddhist culture to the north and Indo-Aryan Vedic culture from the south, where orthodox religious influences have coexisted side by side with shamanism for centuries. The integration of traditional shamanism with introduced religion over centuries has combined to a unique cultural amalgam as can be seen in the praying human figures which adorned rooftops and shrines. Napalese artists developed a distinctive anthropomorphic physiognomy for their deities, typically in an elongated form with long or wide exaggerated features, and hands often shown in the traditional Nepali "namaskar" gesture of reverence and greeting.

This wooden statue depicts a stylized seated human figure with T-shaped nose and eyes. His hands are joined in namaskar gesture.

Gelukkig in goede staat ontvangen. Echter het masker van 43cm incl. horens zat diagonaal, van hoek naar hoek, in een doos van slechts 40cm. Tip: een ruimere doos zou geen overbodige luxe zijn m.i.

Het leren masker zou minstens 25 jaar oud zijn, en je zou nog kunnen ruiken dat het gerookt was. Echter is "nog ruiken" een zwaar understatement voor een zo oud masker. De stank vult de hele huiskamer

Unfortunately this feedback, we described that the mask was processed during a smoking proces from Yak leather and wood. We also described the smell of the mask. Lot description says: The wood is then treated with yak butter before being adorned with the yak leather, undergoing a smoking process over an open flame which you can still smell.

Recebi a estatueta. Bem embalada. Obrigado, Carlos Cerqueira

Paquete perfectamente protegido,. La máscara es muy hermosa. Los picos desperfectos, recogidos en las fotos del vendedor, acrecientan su belleza enigmática.
