“Disappointed”

I was so looking forward to adding this mask to my collection of masks but was disappointed to find that it was not carved out to create a hollow back like my other masks. This is a solid piece which makes it heavier than necessary. I am wary to hang this on the wall along with my other masks given the weight so I will have to lay it down on the table as a conversation piece. I also wish the paint less skimpy.
