The colours of the Death mask are traditionally blue and gold. The Death Masks of the richest Pharoahs were even made of gold!! They were gold so that the deceased could have the blessings of Ra, the sun god. They believed that gold, since it shone like the sun, had been blessed by the great sun god.

They have golden Death masks so that they will be looked upon by Ra in the afterlife. It also had stripes of blue stretching in horizontally from the sides into the centre.
