[Condition] No box, minor scratches The following is quoted from the product page: [Takaoka Copperware] Produced in Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture, a town of casting that has continued for 400 years, originating from the Kaga Maeda family. Takaoka casting is a representative traditional craft of Japan. [Hannya Mask] It has been traditionally appreciated for warding off evil and bringing good luck, and is also known as a representative Noh mask. Although it has a very frightening face, it is a mask that has been familiar to Japanese people since ancient times. We believe it is a perfect item to display as a personal ornament, and we have carefully replicated and cast it.
