1980年代傳統儀式蛇木雕面具

Traditional Ritual Cobra Wood Carved Mask

This is a large wood-carved mask from Sri Lanka, dating to around the 1980s, used in traditional exorcism and sacred rituals known as the "Naga Raksha (Cobra Mask)." It is self-standing. Approximately 46 cm in height, 46 cm in width, 17 cm in depth, and weighs about 1.7 kg. Hand-carved by skilled local Sri Lankan craftsmen using lightweight yet hard traditional local woods such as Kaduru wood, and painted with vibrant colors. The mask features a terrifying expression of a demon face and a group of snakes, regarded as a talisman to ward off evil spirits and disasters, bringing household safety and protection. The "46 cm high" extra-large model, which is over a circle larger than the commonly seen size on the market (about 30 cm), is extremely rare in circulation.
