Venetian masks have a long history of protecting their wearer's identity during promiscuous or decadent activities. Made for centuries in Venice, these distinctive masks were formed from papier-mâché and wildly decorated with fur, fabric, gems, or ribbons. Eventually, Venetian masks re-emerged as the emblem of Carnevale, a pageant and street fair celebrating hedonism.
All our Venetian masks are hand made and feature hand painted decoration and embelishments. Each mask comes complete with certificate of authenticity.
All the models are created through a due inspiration to the past, researching forms and colours in old texts and illustrations.
The material used are of the best quality, from ceramic to papier-machè, from silk to golden leaf. Every creation is enriched with decorations inspired by the fantasy of the artisans that have been working with passion for the company for years.
In Venice the mask has always had a great importance through the years, but it achieves the biggest expression during the period of carnival, where history and fantasy melt in a perfect harmony.
