Japanese Antique Wooden Mask 1800s-1860s / Mingei Wabi Sabi Sculpture Folk Art
About the Item
This is a very old Japanese wooden mask.
In Japan, it is called "Kamado-gami".
It was made during the Edo period (1800s to 1860s).
It is hand-carved from cedar wood.
"Kamado-gami" is a custom in northern Japan.
When a house is newly built, it is hung on a pillar near the kamado, hearth, or other place where fire is used as a guardian deity of the house.
In simple terms, they are like gods that watch over you to prevent accidents such as fires from occurring.
It seems to have been made by the carpenter who built the house.
It is simple, powerful, and original.
It is a piece of culture unique to Japan. This is a very rare piece.
