● Manbi Manbi is a female mask of a yokai (supernatural being) created jointly by Kogenke, a Buddhist monk of Hongan-ji Temple, and Shoshin Shimoma, a novice who was called a master of the Konparu school of Noh, and Hideto Deme, a mask craftsman. It is said to be the predecessor of the demon woman in "Momijigari" (Maple Viewing). It resembles Ko-omote (young woman mask), but the hair is drawn a little more roughly, and the outermost of the three strands of hair is characterized by entering from the middle, making it a very human-like and sensual mask. It is said that the name Manbi (ten thousand charms) was derived from the fact that it has wide-open eyes and a mouth that exudes charm. It is mainly used in the Konparu and Kita schools, and is used for the third category of Noh plays. It is used in "Momijigari" and "Sesshoseki" (Killing Stone). Due to amateur photography, the colors may appear different depending on the lighting, but it has been stored in a dark place without being used at all after purchase, so it is a beautiful item without any scratches or stains, as far as an amateur can see. Also, the part where the string passes through is rubbed, but this is believed to be proof that it was used as a genuine item. Please refrain from purchasing if you are nervous about the condition of the item as it is an item that has aged over time. Thank you for your understanding.
