Gorgeous looking and rare brown and black painted bull mask with real bull horns. The mask has black painted eyes and thick eyelashes. Both real cattle horns are feared by the bullfighters because of their sharp edge. The piece has leather ears with animal skin. Notice the colorful dots painted on the snout that give the mask a nice look. The forehead is highlighted with two dangerous scorpions painted over the white background. The mouth shows a red interior and the black nose has two red holes. The backside shows an excellent patina obtained over decades of use. Please notice that the price includes FREE USPS Shipping
