Mask - Japanese ceramic-bodied *nō* mask (female character) (No reserve price)

This Japanese Noh mask, representing a female character, is meticulously crafted from ceramic. The main surface features a plain white glaze, with the eyebrows, eyes, and lips accented by hand-painted details. The hair area on the back is finished in black, adorned with white linear patterns. The mask is fitted with purple braided tassels on either side, allowing for easy hanging and display.
