Mask Makers Web

One who has practiced this craft for many years is Toni Meier. Together with his son he produces countless wooden masks every year in his atelier in Kriens. Each mask is unique. Because no specific features are required for the character masks, Toni Meier carves each character into the wood (lime tree) as he feels, freely and without a template. The masks are then treated for hygienic reasons and to protect the wood and normally weigh 200 – 250 grams.
