Leather

  • The Kestrel of Sardinia, the local hawk represented by the leather mask, is hand-crafted with refined aesthetic taste and technique. It is part of a unique set of masks, functional and decorative, resulting from a research on local wildlife, finely designed to be worn.

  • This mask in dark brown hide strikingly reinterprets the grotesque Mamuthones mask, a fascinating yet frightening figure of the traditional carnival of Mamoiada.

  • This captivating hide mask characterised by an elegant face with plain features is taken from the evocative and famous mask of the Sartiglia, an equestrian celebration of the traditional carnival of Oristano.

  • A young clientele especially appreciates s’istaca, the leather backpack traditionally used by shepherds and hunters to carry food and small tools.

  • This mask in painted hide finished with a special strap so that it can be worn depicts the fox, a mysterious animal of sophisticated appeal and elegance. Finely handcrafted, it is shaped on a wooden mould with procedures personalised by this craftsman.
