Shadow Hannya Mask

影の般若 (kage no hannya): "the shadow hannya."

Every Noh theater has a room the audience never sees: the kagami no ma, the mirror room, behind the curtain at the end of the bridge. The lead actor, the shite, sits there in full costume before a tall mirror, bows to the mask and puts it on, then looks at himself until he has become the role. When the five-colored curtain lifts, he walks the long hashigakari bridge onto the stage.

Matte black from horns to chin, so the shape does the talking: ridged horns, pointed ears and bared fangs. A tan tag on the forehead reads 封印 (fūin), "sealed," and the black braided cord ends in a knot and a long tassel.

All black won't fight any costume, and on a dark wall it shows only in outline until the light catches the horns. For a full set, red and gold faces from our decorative Japanese masks sit well on either side of it.
