【Product details】
Step into the traditional world of Noh theatre with this hand-carved wooden Ko-Omote mask, a representation of a young maiden aged between 16 and 17 years. This mask captures the essence of the Ko-Omote role in Noh plays, symbolizing an unmarried young woman, often depicted with high-drawn eyebrows and blackened teeth, a cultural representation of youth and purity.
The Ko-Omote mask embodies innocence and charm, with a hint of naïveté. This expression is carefully crafted through the combination of high eyebrows and blackened teeth, portraying the untouched purity of a young woman. The mask is also adorned with traditional makeup, featuring white gofun (crushed shell white) for a luminous, beautiful face and a touch of red for a healthy, vibrant look. This mask, featuring an inscription on the interior, comes with a plain fabric mask bag and original wooden box, adding unique value to any collection of Japanese art and theatre.
This mask shows signs of wear such as gentle patina and some staining. Please refer to the accompanying photographs for a detailed view of the mask's condition. Note that the stand depicted in the photos is for display purposes only and is not included in the sale.
Dimensions of Mask: approx. H 21.5 cm W 13 cm D 6.8 cm
