Fine vintage old West Javanese Drama mask of "Cepot", a divine servant clown from the Mahabarata . 
According to Javanese legend, when the God Ismaya was ordered to go down to earth and become Semar, the guardian of the Knight, the great royal warrior class in Hinduism, Ismaya complained that he would be lonely and needed a friend. The gods caustically replied that he could have his shadow as a friend. When he reached the earth, Semar’s shadow transformed itself into a human form and took the name of Cepot or Bagong.
This mask is made of hard "Pule" mask wood. Age around 30years old.
