"The Tiger is so powerful in appearance."
I really like this piece of art. He is ferocious and protective at the same time. I especially like animal masks. I have placed this beautiful mask in a position of honor on my mask wall. Kudos to the artist.

"Looks better on the picture."
It is a nice mask, but it looks much simpler and less impressive as you pull it out of the box. Having said that, it is very nice to accompany other masks on your wall. I think it is a good complement to the Ancestors Spirit Mask.
