Found this in the back of a resale shop, don't know much about it and it may not even be Chinese. Each hand cut figure is Painted detail and cut very delicately. Each figure is approx 4 1/2 inches tall and 3 inches wide.
Frame is from the 20's or 30's maybe before. Nice group of 10 mask.
Comments welcome. This is out of my wheel house but couldn't pass it by.
Thanks

This is really cool! I could be way off, but maybe they are vintage Chinese paper dolls

Thanks for the comments, if they are paper dolls they have a lot of fine detailed cuts

Hello! Wondering if you found anything out about this item since posting? I found a framed piece of matching art of a single mask (paper and watercolor mediums) and am wondering what the value is!

Hello Amelielynn3,
Never found out any additional information on these cutouts, sold them years ago for about $25.
