The "Aku" in Daiakujo (Great Evil Officer) means fierce and strong, and is used for the role of a foreign god. This is a copy of a mask handed down in the Hosho family, but the expression is different. The brow bone and upper eyelids droop, so strength is not felt. This is a wooden Noh mask. My grandfather carved it from scratch, and I guarantee the quality. Noh masks are said to have the effect of warding off evil and bringing good fortune, so it seems good to display them in the entrance, etc. * Mask bag and stand are not included. If you would like other photos or have any questions, feel free to comment! Price negotiations are also welcome. There are other types as well, so please take a look at my profile.
