A VERY NICELY DONE CARVING. I THINK IT MAY BE THAI DUE TO THE WAY THE SHOULDERS ARE TURNED UP, THE EAR ON THE MASK AND THE FANGS OR TUSKS. THERE IS A MASK WORN IN DANCE THAT LOOKS LIKE THIS ONE AND IT IS ALSO PRESENT ON MANY OF THE LARGE GAURDIAN STATUES FOUND IN THAILAND. IT LOOKS TO HAVE A GOOD PATINA AND MAY COME FROM THE OLDER TIMES WHEN THE COUNTRY WAS CALLED SIAM.
