This Ko-Omote Noh mask (小面) embodies the delicate beauty and innocence of a young maiden, a testament to traditional Japanese artistry. Carved from wood and adorned with high-drawn eyebrows and blackened teeth, it mirrors the cultural ideals of youth and purity from the Heian period (794-1185) in Japan. Despite its age, the mask retains a timeless charm and allure.

Noh masks (能面) embody various characters—gods, demons, men, and women—each crafted to convey emotions through subtle expression. A slight tilt of the head can transform a mask from joy to sorrow, capturing profound emotions. This intricate craftsmanship allows actors to tell complex stories without words, making each mask a vital piece of the Noh theater's (能楽) artful narrative.
