High quality Japanese traditional hand carved wooden Noh mask - Usobuki空吹, finely carved with meticulous details. The air blowing mask is used for animal spirits such as the rat in "Daikoku Furyu" and the octopus in "Tako". The shape of the mouth blowing is said to be the mouth blowing to utter a prayer or to mirror the shape of a mouth blowing fire, but this shape is thought to be a reference to the old tradition of masks, and similar shapes can be seen in gigaku masks and bugaku masks. Dimensions: 19 x 13.5 x 7 cm Good condition: there are stains and wear off from aging and using, please also take a look at the listed photos for a reference. Will be well packaged and shipping by Japan Post in fast delivery.
