・Fox Mask

Fox masks are often used for Japan’s traditional festivals or performance such as Noh or Kagura. In Japan, foxes have been regarded as a messenger from Japanese deities since ancient times and one of the auspicious animals. Winners will get a beautiful fox mask whose every single part is decorated by hand. These are created by a group of creators called KIRIE, who work actively overseas as well as in Japan at the events such as Japan Expo in France.
