Bivakmuts orange

Made in Peru, this striped knitted face mask with contrasting eyebrows and face is a perfect blend of tradition and fashion

It comes in various styles, including rainbow stripes or a combination of solid colors and thin rainbow stripes. The mask is designed to be pulled over the head and features openings for the eyes, nose, and mouth. This type of mask is called a "waq'ollos" in Quechua, a local dialect in Peru. It is traditionally worn during the Peruvian Festival of Qoyllur Riti, also known as the "Lord of the Snow Star" ceremonies. It can also be worn on the slopes or in the snow.

Qoyllur Rit’i, the annual sacred festival held in the high Andes Mountains of Peru at the foot of Mt. Ausangate, in the Valley of Sinakara, is probably the most important festival of the year. It combines a dangerous moonlit trek to what remains of a melting glacier in an ancient Andean ritual of renewal by sacred Apu waters with the Roman Catholic ritual of the Mass, celebrating the Lord of the Snow Star. The fiesta runs three days and nights without pause. It is an exhausting cacophony of noise, a riot of costume, and a spectacle of movement.  Part of the festivities include dancing and dressing up as various mythological or historical figures each wearing their uniquely identified costumes. One of these groups, the Qollas, dress in this mask with a hat, a woven sling, and llama skin and represent the Aymara residents of the Altiplano region of the Andes mountains. Another group, called the Ukukus, or bears, also wear this type of mask

The mask measures 13 inches long by 9.5 inches wide when laid flat, and is designed to fit most faces
