    50″ (127 cm) This mask is carried in a procession, called Chekko, to celebrate the harvest. This takes place once a year. These masks are made specially for use in that procession and in the past were destroyed or left to rot after the celebration. Now, with the development of a secondary market for them they are sold. However, they are not made for sale so are completely authentic, if not very old.
