Antique ritual mask in carved wood, Himalayas, 20th century – 19 cm

This ancient ritual mask made of carved wood likely originates from himalayan regions such as nepal or tibet. Its marked expression and raw style suggest shamanic or ceremonial use, typical of local traditions. Carved from a single piece of wood, it features traces of red pigment and a deep patina, testifying to its antiquity and ritual use. It measures 19 cm in height and 15 cm in width, with lateral perforations for hanging. The worn condition and natural cracks in the wood reinforce its authenticity and ethnographic character.
