This mask started out as a bat, but ended up more as a dragon (maybe just like real dragons did?). He's a spectacular piece, and not for the light of heart. He sports a miniature mohawk, fabulous giant ears, and lovely curled eyelids. Also, of course, a perfect little leafy batnose (the rest of him might be a dragon, but that nose is pure bat.)
A full copper headpiece, Bat Dragon can be worn over the face, or up on the head, more as a helm-ish-thing, or switch with ease back and forth.
The wonder of a copper mask is in the strength and give of the material. Because it is so strong, the mask can be very thin- this makes it both very light, and makes it possible to fit as a second skin. These won't block your peripheral vision the way a leather. paper maiche, or plastic mask would. They can be very comfortably worn all day and night- no worries about sweat or rain causing them to soften and lose their shape. Rinse it with clean water at the end of the night before putting it away. They can stand up to anything you throw at them. As for packing? Throw it in your bag. If you're checking the bag, maybe stuff a balled up pair of socks where your forehead would go. Easy.
Not planning to wear your mask? He or she won't mind. They can hang flat against a wall, or sit on a shelf.
