I've had this displayed as a ward against evil for over 40 years. Whether it's thanks to that, or just coincidence, I've been healthy and lively, without any accidents or illnesses, and have surpassed 90 years of age. It's with a sense of nostalgia that I'm putting this up for sale. I hope it will watch over the person who receives it, as a ward against evil... I feel the warmth and gentleness of the wood within the intimidating presence of the Hannya mask. Due to its age, there are some scratches and dust, so please be aware of that. There are no smells of tobacco or pets.
