An egg-shaped wooden Punu Mask with circular-shape and downcast slit eyes, flat nose and bulbous closed lips. Full coiffure on both sides of the head and a bun on the top of the head. Metal clam-shape iron rattle is attached above the head adn bells are around the lower part of the head. Cotton cloth wrapped around the perimeter of the mask creating a concept of a beard. The mask dates from the mid to late 20th century.
