This mask is made using the wax and dye batik method directly on the wood. The design is painted in wax. Then the dye is painted on. Then the wax is removed, leaving the area previously covered by wax undyed. The process is then repeated for each additional color.
This is a fairly traded product made by a small home industry on the island of Java, Indonesia.
