Mask Makers Web

These masks are used by the Yaqui and Mayo Indians of Sonora and Sinaloa Mexico in their tribal ceremonies and festivals. The masks are symbolic of animals and people that relate to the ritual they are performing. Masks that have been actually used in the rituals,or "danced" are extremely rare and difficult to find and consequently are very expensive. Our masks have not been "danced", but are carved by the Indian carvers and are authentic masks.
