Quality of Japanese workmanship and artistry is unmatched. Lacquer stand included. Excellent condition. "Okina, in the context of Japanese Noh theatre, is a sacred ritualistic play and also the name of the mask worn by the central character, a divine old man, who dances for peace, prosperity, and safety. It's considered a special performance, often preceding other Noh plays and is more of a Shinto ritual than a traditional Noh play."
