Authentic Alaskan Yup'ik Mask

This is an authentic Alaskan Yup'ik mask, characterized by its handcrafted construction and traditional materials. Made from natural elements, the mask features a face with simple, minimalistic expressions, which are typical of Yup'ik artistry. The eyes are slitted, and the mouth is subtly open, conveying a serene and mysterious demeanor.

The mask is adorned with real fur, which frames the face and adds a sense of warmth and realism. The braided detail along the side enhances its authenticity, highlighting the traditional weaving techniques used by the Yup'ik people. The inclusion of an animal motif near the bottom suggests a connection to the spiritual or natural world, often depicted in Yup'ik masks used during ceremonial dances.

The attached tag that reads "Authentic Yup'ik Masks" confirms its origin
