- Japanese Antique Edo Hand Carved Wood Noh Theater Mask Otobide 17th-18th CenturyLocated in Studio City, CAA truly beautiful, wonderfully aged, alluring mask made for Japanese Noh theater. The naturally faded beauty and unique character drew us to this mask immediately. The mask is handcrafted and hand-carved from natural wood, clearly by a master of his trade.
