    Shaman Exorcism Mask
    Yama God of Death
    100% HAND CARVED
    EXTRA LARGE
    THIS IS ONE OF THE OLDEST AND BEST CARVED TIBETAN MASKS IN MY COLLECTION. IT WAS MAGNIFICENTLY CARVED FROM A PIECE OF FINE HARDWOOD (PERHAPS EBONY WOOD) THE LIKES OF WHICH IS RARELY FOUND THESE DAYS.
    THIS MASK DEPICTS THE HINDU AND BUDDHIST GOD YAMA WHO IS REVERED AS THE GOD OF DEATH
    SHAMANIC MASKS LIKE THIS ARE USED IN RELIGIOUS RITUALS, FESTIVALS AND EXORCISMS BY SHAMAN AND  BUDDHIST MONKS. THEY WERE ORIGINALLY DERIVED FROM THE TOTEM WORSHIPING OF ETHNIC MINORITIES IN NORTH & WESTERN CHINA, MONGOLIA, NEPAL AND TIBET. THIS IS A VERY LARGE MASK, VERY SKILFULLY CARVED DEEP INTO THE WOOD GIVING THE MASK GREAT DEPT SO THAT IT CAN BE WORN ON THE FACE OR THE TOP OF THE HEAD. THIS IS NOT A REPRODUCTION, IT IS AN ORIGINAL MASK THAT WAS USED IN SHAMAN RITUALS. BACK IN 2007, I WAS FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO TAKE A TRIP FROM BEIJING TO LHASA WHERE I FOUND THIS GEM. IT HAS BEEN IN MY PERSONAL COLLECTION EVER SINCE AND HAS NEVER BEEN LISTED FOR SALE BEFORE NOW. IF YOU ARE A SERIOUS MASK COLLECTOR, A TIBETAN ART ENTHUSIAST OF A DEVOUT BUDDHIST, THIS PIECE IS A MUST HAVE. DON'T LET THIS UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY PASS YOU BY... BUY IT NOW.
