The Ushioni appears in the Uwajima Festival, resembling a long-necked ox. Carried by dozens of people, it parades through the town, the star of the fantastical summer festival. During the festival, it sticks its head into each house to ward off evil spirits. This papier-mâché figure is a miniature version of the Ushioni, and you can play with it by moving the bamboo skewers inside the neck. -- It still looks quite good at first glance, but as it is an old item, it is being sold with some scratches and stains. I can add more photos, so please let me know if you have any concerns. Please check the photos and purchase with your understanding.
