Columbina Piuma oliva

One of our more luxurious collection of masks.  Beautiful plumes of exotic olive green feathers adorn this mask designed with velvet textile. 

Columbina means 'little dove' in Italian.  A character from the Commedia dell'Arte.  The comic servant would occasionally under the name of Arlecchina, wear motley clothing similar to her counterpart Arlecchino.  She was also known to wear heavy makeup around her eyes and carry a tambourine which she could use to fend off the amorous advances of Pantalone.
