Details
This inkmask (replica) is knocked out of copper by hand, and provided with real pieces of turquoise. Very nice to hang on the wall. It would "drive out evil spirits," say the modern Inca of Peru. The back is painted black. The mask is 23 cm long (measured to the bottom of the earrings) and is approx. 19 cm wide. Is in good condition and is undamaged.

Dit inkamasker (replica) wordt met de hand uit koper geklopt, en voorzien van echte stukjes turqoise. Zeer fraai om aan de muur te hangen. Het zou "kwade geesten verdrijven" aldus de hedendaagse Inka's van Peru. De achterzijde is zwart gelakt.
Het masker is 23 cm lang (tot onderkant oorbellen gemeten) en is ca. 19 cm breed.
Verkeerd in goede conditie en is onbeschadigd.
