"Just as described!"
I purchased this as a gift to folks who love original folk art and contemporary crafts. They have it hanging on a wall with other art pieces and it looks fabulous.

"Fun Festival Accessory"
Wearing this to an outdoor festival in previous years made me feel part of the celebration. It is lightweight enough to be comfortable and sturdy enough to last many years as a decorative surprise on your wall.

"Nice"
Classy in its simplicity. Feels like it could have come from a Fifties Halloween party, eh?

"EXCITED WIFE LOVES THIS MASK"
this mask is so amazing. well made & the headband is the elastic type that slips over the head. I personally wouldve probably liked seeing a ribbon to tie it around the head instead, but either way its a great piece that my wife is happy to have in her panda collection.

"Quality product"
I am so pleased with the masks made by Marcilio. I own a number of them. The leather is smoother than I would have ever thought possible and makes the mask highly useable without fear of breakage by dropping, etc. Thanks for such amazing work, Mr. Barroco!
