Wooden Fish Mask

Backed by a team of highly skilled professionals we are the eminent Trader Distributor Supplier and Exporter of Wooden Fish Mask in Kolkata West Bengal India. An ethnic and traditional mask intricately crafted by the artisans of South Dinajpur(West Bengal a India). Wood pieces are kept submerged in large reservoirs containing water mixed with mulberry gum powder bleaching powder and sal; the pieces are taken out after a week and sun-dried. Various timber varieties such as Gamari Sal Mango Pakur and Mahogany are used.
The wooden masks are meant for use in Gambheera Dances or Palas (musical folk theaters) as the carvers or the performers treat each mask philosophically by considering it as the Mukha (face) rather than a Mukhosh (mask) a the belief being that it comes alive as soon as one puts his face behind it.
