Old Ceremonial Jaguar Mask, dark brown painted with white dots all over. Upper and lower carved teeth highlight this ferocious feline; they denote the animal\'s anger. Black sharp glass eyes, white eyebrows, high-relieve carved nose, and ears give the piece an outstanding expression. The backside of the mask has a thick layer of glue, “Cola Blanca” used to reinforce it. Please notice that the price includes FREE USPS Shipping.
