RETURN OF THE SALMON MASK by Janice Morin

This mask is so powerful!! Richly decorated with inlaid pieces of Abalone (Mother of pearl)!!! Horse hair and the traditional cedar bark are adorning the face - also, cedar bark rope. 

Did you see the Salmon jumping on top of the forehead of the mask - I think the creativity and craftsmanship is just unbelievable and clearly shows the love Janice is putting into this. The details... full salmon on each side of the face, each is inlaid - AND - did you have a close look at the ears???? Did you see the additional salmons on the ears?? It's just beautiful!

It's one of my favorite pieces - (although, I admit I say that about every mask Janice and Randy are delivering.... but it's true) But please  have a look at the images please - I will let them speak for themselves. I will also include a video.... enjoy!

Measurements: 15" tall, 16" wide, 6" deep, total height incl. cedar bark and hair is 36"

Meaning: The Salmon symbolizes prosperity, renewal and fertility. They are one of the most important and highest respected animals of all since they have been the primary food source from the beginning of time to the Northwest Coast First Nations 

Note: overseas shipping is not available for this piece - sorry
