Wondeful mask
This is the first item Ive purchased from this artist but, I will be back for more. The craftmanship is great. I loved this mask when I saw it online but, in person it is even more beautiful.

Ceramic mask, 'Observant Jaguar'

Very well crafted
This jaguar mask has a wonderful, expressive face. A little smaller than I expected, but beautifully crafted. Very solid piece, nice weight for the size, solid back with opening to hang.
