Vintage Balinese Rangda Celuluk Mask – Hand-painted Wooden Demon Mask

This vintage Balinese wooden mask, depicts Celuluk, a fearsome demon associated with Rangda, the Queen of Leyaks in Balinese mythology. 
Measuring 25 cm in height, 25 cm in width, and 12 cm in depth, this mask features a movable jaw, adding to its dynamic and expressive design.


In Balinese folklore, Rangda is a powerful and terrifying witch queen who leads an army of demonic spirits known as Leyaks. 
Celuluk, one of her loyal minions, is often portrayed with bulging eyes, sharp fangs, and a grotesque grin, symbolizing chaos, transformation, and supernatural power. These masks are used in sacred dance dramas, such as the Barong dance, which represents the eternal battle between good (Barong, the protective spirit) and evil (Rangda and her demons).


Celuluk masks are worn in ritual performances, believed to ward off malevolent spirits and balance cosmic forces. They are also used in ceremonial processions, embodying the darker forces of Balinese mythology.
