Carved Bunny Mask
Approximately 7" wide x 10 1/2" tall and 8" deep
I couldn't pass up this unusual bunny mask. Normally my collection is all devil type masks. This bunny is hand carved and painted...even has some gold highlights.
The wood is very light, so I believe this is pule wood made in Bali.
I don't know about this NOT being a devil type mask...it could be considered a frighting sight to some.... LOL ...Lori
Rabbits live on every continent except Antarctica. Because of this every culture has some sort of symbolism for them.
This is so nicely detailed Dave!! Pretty awesome find. I love it.
Thanks Scott...I was thinking...this is something Scott would have hanging in his house along with his cast iron rabbits.
Believe it, or not, my dear wife hates all of my cast iron pieces and so I have 95% of them stored away at a climate controlled storage facility and some stored in trunks. So, needless to say, we have very few pieces displayed in our home. I do have an antique china cabinet that's filled with all of my small collectibles and an antique bookcase filled with books and Vienna bronze pieces. And my patio and landscape look like a zoo:)
Now that is a real rabbit! Love it!!!
