Q: I only have the front view now. The mask is in my air conditioned storage unit. If you are interested, I can certainly take the side and rear. I am interested in your opinion. Additionally, what do you charge for appraisal? The mask is hand-carved wood. Carolyn, 821
A: Personally, I enjoy masks like this. It can be described as a Mexican decorative probably made in the state of Guerrero. Masks like this are intended for sale to tourists and export. What I like about them is they often surprise me with their strong colors and designs I would have never imagined. Technically they are wall art, not real masks. My minimum charge for appraisals is $50, which would not make much sense in this case. C
