A moretta mask is one of the masks associated with the Venetian carnival. There's a number of them, but this one is special because where your mouth is there's a button that you would hold with your teeth.
The women who wore these masks had to be mute and more importantly, if you told them anything they couldn't repeat it because they couldn't speak.
