I bought a "masqot" in Sweden. The information brochure that came with the piece states the following: "Inspired by ancient sagas and mythology, Mats Jonasson has created his own series of miniature masqot "spirits" in crystal." Mine is called Mazzai - Protector of equality and cultural diversity. I don't have any particular interest in the mythologies. I just liked what I saw and wanted to add to my "face" collection.
Below is what I brought home.

Hi Inga I am so glad you had a great holiday, oh I wish I could travel to far away wonderful places ;) The face piece you brought home would have to be the most gorgeous piece of art work I have seen in a long time I love it so much.Belinda
Inga, this piece is stunning! I am going to look this artist up for sure. This is a wonderful momento of your time abroad.
Glad you are home safely. I love traveling and when I get home I am so happy to be safe with my memories intact. I just know you were inspired by all of the art you saw in Estonia and Stockholm.
Inga, I'm glad you had a good trip -- and what a wonderful art piece you've got!
