[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 7092004, member: 2844"]I was wondering the same thing. It suggests that it is a kraton mask or palace mask, worn during special dances at the kraton or palace. But I couldn't say for sure. The palace grounds are like a town inside the city of Yogyakarta, and there are also artist's studios and shops there. I don't know if they are allowed to use the Sultan's crest though. I think there used to be a website for the kraton, but it could have been the one in Surakarta. [USER=79823]@Richard Bray[/USER] , maybe if you google 'Kraton Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat', you will be able to find contact info, so you could ask about your mask. There is also this Yogya tourism website, but I don't know if they can be of help: [URL]https://visitingjogja.jogjaprov.go.id/en/[/URL][/QUOTE]
