Los Tigres

Mask Item 280

$1200.

Observation:  This is one of the only two tiger masks that I  have  ever seen where the agave fiber, called ixtle, was used instead of nylon cord or some other man - made material for stitching the mask together.  In the past all masks were stitched together using ixtle fiber.  This mask has been used in combat.
