Description
This mask combines the horned outline of a Hannya with a fully skeletal face. Its open eye sockets, exposed teeth and four horns around the jaw give it a skull-like appearance distinct from a traditional Hannya mask.
The silver base is shaded to bring out the sculpted relief and contrasted by black horns, fangs and teeth. Each piece is sanded, prepared and hand-painted in my workshop in Brittany, France. Small variations in texture, shading and painted details can therefore appear from one piece to another.
YOKAI.JP describes Gashadokuro as a modern giant-skeleton concept rather than an ancient regional mask tradition. The commercial name “Gashadokuro Hannya” describes this piece’s skeletal appearance. It is not a traditional mask, ritual object or exact depiction of a giant Gashadokuro.
Making process and credit
The PETG base is produced, sanded, prepared, hand-painted and varnished in the Dai Yokai workshop in Brittany, France.
The original digital model is Bone Hannya, created by Golden Kaeru. Dai Yokai produces the physical PETG piece and completes the sanding, preparation, silver-and-black painting and varnished finish in Brittany.

FAQ
What is a Gashadokuro Hannya mask?
It is a contemporary mask combining a horned Hannya outline with a fully skeletal face, open eye sockets and exposed teeth. “Gashadokuro Hannya” is a descriptive commercial name for this visual fusion. The piece is not presented as a traditional Japanese mask, ritual object, historical reproduction or authenticated cultural artefact of any established provenance.
Is this an authentic depiction of a Gashadokuro?
No. Gashadokuro is generally represented as a giant skeleton rather than a wearable horned face mask. This product is a contemporary skeletal Hannya based on Golden Kaeru’s Bone Hannya digital model. Its name describes the skull-like visual direction and does not claim historical authenticity.
Who created the mask design?
Golden Kaeru created the original Bone Hannya digital model. Dai Yokai produces the physical PETG piece in Brittany, then completes the sanding, preparation, silver-and-black hand painting and varnished finish. The product page preserves that split credit instead of presenting the underlying digital design as a Dai Yokai creation.
What are the mask’s size and weight?
WooCommerce records dimensions of 18.38 × 12.18 × 26.95 cm and a weight of 172 g. The longest axis is 26.95 cm. These measurements help with display planning, but they do not confirm facial fit, internal attachment, field of vision, comfort for prolonged wear or suitability for safe extended wearable use.
Is every mask identical?
No. The Bone Hannya form remains consistent, while silver tones, black details, shaded recesses, sanding marks and varnish can vary slightly. Dai Yokai prepares and paints each physical piece by hand in Brittany, so small finish differences are expected rather than treated as defects.
