Masquerade masks were used to conceal the identity of the wearer during the balls.

At the ball the mask meant you did not know who you were dancing with, although the ball was almost like a game of guess who where people tried to guess the identities of the others and often suitors tried to steal a kiss from a woman who had caught their eye.
