Claire Chapman Jul 20, 2007:
Since "a couple of possibilities" is not the English translation of the phrase "allures de masque," would you please correct the glossary entry? When a glossary entry is done, you can correct both the French or English phrase as needed.
Claire Chapman Jul 20, 2007:
Can you provide any more context? What industry is this for?

a couple of possibilities

It's hard to tell from the exerpt what the style of the piece is, but "with an ethnic design (or look)" or "with a carnival design (or look)" are possibilities.
