Dear Anon,

1. Usually, in Chinese buildings, you can find figurines, especially those above Chinese rocco style bungalows with faces or masks of fierce mystical animals.

The purpose is to `scare' away evil.

2. Usually, within the home, in order to bring good luck, often, swords or knifes and even pictures of hungry, stalking animals are avoided.

As this is considered inauspicious for luck.

3. Thus, there are many various types, shapes and form of masks, and it is subjective where, they imply, the above (Para 2). Some masks have smiley faces also.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
