This vintage Indonesian 3D framed mask is a unique and handmade piece that showcases the country's rich culture. Most of the pictures were taken against a copper colored bedspread. There is no background for the mask. It is attached to a central wooden support as you can see in the pictures. It stands out about an inch from the frame.
The mask features intricate details in black and gold. It seems to to be gold leaf? or a metal that does not tarnish, I haven't touched it, except to dust..It can be hung on the wall, but as you can see in the pictures, I placed it in front of a red painting of mine and it stands by itself. The painting is not for sale.
The mask is beautifully presented in a shadow box frame measuring 24.5" X 16.75". The exact provenance of this item is unfortunately unknown, and I can't find the receipt, but it is a valuable addition to any collection of Indonesian art and collectibles.
The mask is made with great care and attention to detail, and is a testament to the skill and creativity of Indonesian artisans.

Treasures of a Lifetime Collection: for over 25 years I performed on the world’s stages as an award-winning opera singer and actor and during those travels I collected many unusual and beautiful things. At this time in my life I'm far more interested in exploring the inner treasures I have gathered. These one-of-a-kind treasures are either unusual, or have a unique history, or were worn on stage and in my productions. I no longer have the desire to pack or unpack anything extraneous when I move: simplify, simplify, simplify... Now it's time for me to share what I have learned in my cabaret, my writing and my teaching. Enjoy these treasures, and these moments of your own life as well, they never return.
