Maskpiume Maschera del Galeone Mardi Gras Emerald Green Mask Venizia Made in Venice, Italy

This beautiful Venetian Masquerade Feather Mask is predominantly emerald green with contrasting gold.  It is also adorned with plumes of rich green feathers that rise up 12 inches (310 mm) from the center of the mask.  A large faux pearl cabochon embellishment and black satin ties complete the lovely design.  This Feather Mask is a genuine Venetian Masquerade Mask hand crafted in Italy.  This particular mask comes in striking Gold and Green with detailed glitter decoration and intricate gold braiding and adorned with a plume of dark green feathers.

Half face masks adorned with feathers, put these masks in a class of their own. They are intriguingly different and a real standout among the Venetian mask styles. Handmade by Venetian craftsman, the style is timeless though they’ve been made for generations.  Mask making (and wearing) is taken very seriously in Venice and some families have been crafting Venetian Carnival masks for centuries.  Decadence, anonymity, and illicit behavior are all part of the romance behind the Venetian mask.  From the 11th century until now, masks have been donned as performance art and costume.  Each hand painted mask is highly embellished with exotic trinkets and rich trims, making every mask a unique and treasured work of art.  This would look great at a Masquerade Masked ball, at a Mardi Gras celebration or displayed on a wall or amonst your other collectible treasures.
