Carved in the style of a Guatemalan Mico — a monkey mask worn in traditional highland dances, where the mask itself is understood as a vehicle for transformation.
The paired vision openings above carved eyes are a hallmark of this specific tradition; the articulated jaw and banded red-and-black brow are typical of the type. I can't confirm maker, exact age, or whether this example saw ceremonial use, but the form is a strong, well-documented match.
Age-consistent wear throughout, generally good condition.
This vintage wooden mask measures 22.5cm tall x 16.5cm wide.
