[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9852444, member: 2844"]I don't think they should.;) I don't see any Balinese influence, not any Batak influence either. You mentioned Borneo before, but remarked that they are not known for metalwork of this sort, which is correct. However, the style of the masks you found is vaguely reminiscent of Dayak Hudoq masks from Kalimantan, the Indonesian part of Borneo. Of course Hudoq masks are made of wood and painted white with red and black decorations. That still leaves Mikey's mask, which is of a different type. All of them could have been made in the same workshop, which could be located anywhere.[/QUOTE]
