The narrow eyes are carved out as small openings, while the long, straight nose and the oval mouth opening define the mask's central character. These simple yet clear forms create a highly expressive face.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe mask is carved from a single piece of wood. Clear traces of the carving tool are still visible on the surface, ensuring the handiwork remains clearly recognizable. Over the years, the dark wood has developed a natural patina with slight color variations and a matte sheen that gives the object extra depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSimple cords are attached to the sides, which originally allowed the mask to be worn or hung. The slight curvature of the wood follows the natural shape of the trunk from which the mask was carved, giving the whole piece an organic character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMasks like this were often used in Nepal during local rituals, village festivals, or traditional performances. Nowadays, they are also appreciated as special pieces of folk art and as decorative objects with a distinct ethnographic appeal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDimensions: H 31 x W 18 cm\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 0.8 kg\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"1stbuddha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56756224065867,"sku":"479","price":119.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1012\/6170\/5547\/files\/handgesneden-houten-masker-nepal-langwerpig-hoofd-donker-hout.jpg?v=1773073981","url":"https:\/\/1stbuddha.com\/products\/elongated-hand-carved-wooden-mask-from-nepal-in-dark-patinated-wood","provider":"1stbuddha","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
