More Information on this Ornament

The Back Story More: Bright and colorful, masquerade, or Venetian masks emerged during the repressed climate of medieval Italy. Originally intended to shield revelers from the judging eyes of neighbors, these festive masks eventually came to symbolize Carnevale, a pre-Lent celebration, as well as theater, pageant and street festivals throughout the year. A visitor to our store imagined how lovely the Theater Mask Ornaments would look displayed together in a shadow box. On a Personal Note: Wandering down the narrow streets of Firenze, Italy, I noticed many of the boutiques carried BEAUTIFUL hand-crafted masks. Many were hand-crafted, made out of paper mache, and they reminded me of Mardi Gras and traditional theatre symbols. But, I learned these masks have a rich history in Italy.
