Kagura masks coloring set 手力男命 (Tajikarao no Mikoto) Wooden/Hand-carved/for kagura dance
These authentic masks can be used in Kagura dances, and are carved by a master craftsman with 45 years of experience, using precious paulownia wood that has been dried for more than 10 years.
The masks are painted with lacquer paint in a "glossy finish," which requires 15 coats of primer and 15 coats of finish. The work is finished slowly and carefully, giving it a beautiful and dignified appearance.
The eyes are made of 5mm-thick brass and polished carefully, so they shine and reflect the light, creating a lively expression.
In addition to the finished and pre-painted masks, the set includes a DVD and manual on kagura. You can take your time and enjoy making the masks while learning about coloring tips and kagura.
