Thank you Tim, for your feedback and opinion.
Well... I tempt to agree with your opinion, this is why I started this post to get several different opinions etc...
I'm currently waiting for the curator of Far eastern collections of Brussels Royal Museum to get back to me after her analysis and I will be fixed for sure.
The other opinion is that the frame might have been added a few decades ago but that the mask MIGHT be actually original, I will know the final verdict in the up coming days.
Nevertheless, even if proven fake it is an interesting and beautiful piece of decoration (in the worse of cases that is).
