Masks were a feature of interwar culture in various contexts. African and Oceanic masks were admired and were powerfully influential on modern art. Masks were extensively used in theatre and ballet, and their popularity was such that they were also used for home decoration. The use of cosmetics became part of mainstream culture; this may relate to the increasing tendency for young women to work outside the home.

This paper explores the role of the essential facilities doctrine in circumscribing the scope of network sharing obligations in telecommunications. Among other things it argues that a proper application of the doctrine of essential facilities should recognize the prominence of dynamic over static efficiency in promoting consumer welfare. Regulators may be averse to recognizing these tradeoffs because unlike the behavior of prices the welfare losses from foregone innovation may be unobservable to the regulators' constituency. Moreover, an emphasis on dynamic efficiency requires the short-term regulator to take the "long view" – fostering the competitive process rather than emulating the competitive outcome.

Javanese culture derives from the intellectual, emotional, and physical process inJavanese environment. This process goes on to keep up with the constant changes in theenvironment. This process has resulted in such artistic products as decorative roof top ofwuwung in Mayong Jepara Central Java. The wuwung has been aesthetically put on top ofJavanese traditional houses precisely above the blandar penuwun. This roof top serves thefunction as the cover to keep water and dust from entering the house. This such kind ofwuwung is characteristically decorated with glass mozaik and is therefore uniquely differentfrom that in other regions.This analysis is attempting to identify and prove qualitative explanation. Accordinglythis study employs qualitative method to avoid mathematic calculation. It is so because whatmatters is the value of particularly specific and unique objects which contain meaningfulaction. The study deals with visual art, particularly ceramic craft of clay. It is expected thatthere will be sustainable benefits to reserve local genius in the national culture. The art workof decorative wuwung from Mayong Lor Jepara Central Java is characteristically clear and canbe classified by time, technique of making, decorative technique, material, and meaning.Results of thestudy suggested that wuwungan wayang in Mayong Central Java which isfamiliar in Javanese society clearly represents such good characters or heroic figures. For theJavanese people who already held particular beliefs such animism and dynamism long beforethe introduction of such religons as Hindu, Budha, and Islam, put a historical background in thedevelopment of meaningful symbols. Home decoration implies more than physical activities;rather it implies praying and expectation represented by the decorative wuwung produced inMayong Jepara with its aesthetic beautiful mozaik of glass.Keywords: decorative art, wuwung, glass mozaik, Mayong Jepara  Kebudayaan Jawa lahir dari olah pikir, rasa, dan karsa pada lingkungan hidupmasyarakat etnis Jawa dalam kurun waktu yang terus berproses dalam menghadapi perubahanzaman yang ada.
