1920's Style Doctor Plague Steampunk Plague Doctor Mask

Forged from rich, blackened faux leather, the mask is dominated by its iconic, menacing bird-like beak, reinforced at the tip with cunningly distressed brass plating. The eyes are set behind massive, prominent welder's goggles, the dark, rounded lenses framed in heavy copper and secured with intricate buckle-and-strap assemblies. Where the leather meets the brass, it is riveted with burnished gunmetal studs, suggesting durability and a brutal, functional elegance. The true Steampunk spirit lies in its mechanical augmentation: the sides of the mask are festooned with exposed clockwork gears and cogs, some seemingly functional, others merely decorative accents—polished silver against the aged bronze. Subtle, coiled steam-pipes trace the contours of the beak, giving the impression of an experimental filtration system, a dark, anachronistic marvel of Victorian-era bio-containment. It is the face of a terrifyingly efficient man of science, a grim watcher from a parallel timeline where steam and clockwork conquered contagion, one unsettling, magnificent piece of engineered dread.
