    Does anyone know where there is made? it's old? it's valuable or collected? thanks!

    looks like a mask demond, but not sure.

    I've tried online searches with no luck.

    Any help would be appreciated.

      Hi I reckon it is from Indonesia. Bali. Near Ubud.

      I have some Balinese ancestor portraits here. They are done from the same wood. http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/19156-balinese-ancestor-portraits
      The Balinese are master carvers.
      Hindu too!
      Barong is the term for these I think in Indonesian.

      There's Barong Ket (lion),Barong Landung (giant), Barong Celeng (boar), Barong Macan (tiger), Barong Naga (dragon - serpent).

      I think yours is Barong Naga!
