Duh. :oops:
There is not much useful information included in the listing, but here is another one just like it on ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/144198815240
Welcome, Caleb. Your mask is definitely a very modern decorative pastiche - a mix of African elements and styles. Here is a very similar one...
The system is different from what we see on limited edition prints, where the first number is the individual item number, and the number following...
"Numbered Editions: These individually numbered collectibles were issued in sequential production editions limited to 9,999 pieces. For example, a...

What is it made of - wood or metal? I think you should approach any more purchases with cautious skepticism. Buy what appeals to you, but don't...

Yes. A shoe anvil is used to support a shoe when nailing on the sole, and for other repairs. It is not a "last", which is shaped more like a foot...
Welcome, Nicola. May we see views of all 4 sides of your kachina, as well as the feathers (they are cut off in the one photo provided)? I will...
The label includes "No de Ordem 001300/2000" (number of order_____/2000). I suspect 2000 is the year the individual number was assigned, and may...
