Mask - Arcilla - Máscara Noh: Anciano alegre (Sin precio de reserva)

This is a vintage Japanese Noh mask depicting a joyful elderly man (such as an *Okina* or *Jō* character). Crafted from fired clay, the surface is finished with multiple layers of hand-applied lacquer and pigment. The expression is gentle and benevolent, featuring exquisite details such as gold-painted floral motifs on the forehead and finely rendered facial hair and teeth. It retains its original suspension holes on the back, allowing for immediate display. Years of use have imparted a natural patina to the surface.
Condition Report: There is some lacquer loss at the upper-left corner, fine surface crazing, and a minor firing crack on the interior. These are signs of age; the mask remains structurally sound and is ideal for use as a wall hanging or interior decorative piece.
