The
Commedia dell'Arte Masks
Leather
Neoprene
Leather
and Neoprene Commedia masks are made from the similar molds. The difference
is performance quality, feel, look, durability and comfort. For professionals,
I highly recommend ordering leather Commedia dell'Arte masks. Neoprene
Commedia masks is excellent for tight budgeted theatre and drama education.
A leather Commedia dell'Arte mask for a theater department can last 10
years or more. I've used some leather masks for over 20 years.
How
are they different?
Leather mask is more comfortable, durable, and will adjust to your face
better. In performance or classes, it has a better feeling and energy.
Plus it is one of the materials which the original Commedia dell'Arte
masks were made from. A leather theater and teaching mask will last longer
than a neoprene mask.
The
leather masks come with an adjustable elastic strap.
Neoprene masks have an extra charge for the adjustable elastic. Neoprene
is less expensive and you can buy unfinished Raw Neoprene
masks for a real budget saver.
How
are they the same?
The same high quality designs are available in both leather and neoprene.
You can get custom coloring and hair on both types of masks.
Improved
Adjustable Elastic:
I am always on the lookout to improve my masks and I have found another
one.
New and improved adjustable elastic
is now available to hold your masks on better.
Tight
Budgets:
Neoprene Masks are from $40 to $109 coming in - Raw, Finish,
Finished with Hair, and with Lining and/or
Adjustable Elastic. Understanding people and organizations
have tight budgets, I offer adjustable elastic and lining
as additional options for Neoprene Latex Masks.
This is one way I can keep prices low, giving you options that will fit
your budget when ordering.

One
green note; all of the leather I now use comes
from an award winning environmentally friendly tannery Wickett & Craig
that is one of the cleanest on earth and is close to NYC.
A
health alert a medical friend insisted
I post. People who are allergic to leather or neoprene latex should consult
their physician before using masks. |
