    Hello,

    I'd like to identify and date this little "mask"? in ceramic or terracotta.
    the painting is crafted as well as modeling
    It seems rather old.
    length 9.2 cm
    width 7 cm
    weight g 66

    Thanks :)

    It looks like a modern, decorative version of an ancient Greek theater mask:
