【Product details】

Experience the allure of traditional Japanese theater with this 20th-century Noh mask, Magoujiro. Resembling the Koomote mask, which portrays the youthful innocence of a young maiden, Magoujiro captures the essence of a more mature and sophisticated woman, often representative of a married woman's calm and gentle demeanor.

The distinct feature of the Magoujiro mask is the hair pattern, with two strands drawn from the forehead to the temples, branching into three or four strands below. This design element adds a layer of depth and complexity to the mask's appearance, contrasting with the simpler hair design of the Koomote.

Magoujiro embodies the mature elegance and beauty of an idealized woman, showcasing a serene and composed facial expression that speaks of life's experiences and grace. The mask, despite its age, has maintained its charm, with some wear and a trace of white paint on the chin, as shown in the photographs.

This mask is an exquisite representation of Noh theater's ability to convey the subtleties of human emotion and idealized beauty, making it a valuable addition to any collection of Japanese cultural artifacts.

Dimensions: approx. H 21.1 cm W 13.3 cm L 6.5 cm
