The undisputed icon of Japanese Noh Theatre.
The Hannya mask is much more than a simple decoration: it is the embodiment of pure emotion. In folklore, it represents the spirit of a woman consumed by obsessive jealousy and agonizing rage, transforming her into a demon. It is a fascinating piece due to its duality: viewed from the front, it appears menacing and angry; but by slightly tilting its head downwards, it expresses profound sadness and tears.
Why is this part essential?
Classical Aesthetics: With its two bull horns, metallic eyes and mouth split in a tormented smile, it is the most strong motif of Japanese art.
Handcrafted Finish 🇫🇷: 3D printed (high quality PETG) in our workshop, each mask is crafted to resemble the lacquered wooden masks of yesteryear.
Color Game:
Red (Aka Hannya): The traditional color, symbolizing pure anger and passion.
White (Shiro Hannya): Represents a woman of noble origin, with a ghostly elegance (aged "Bone" finish).
Blue (Ao Hannya): Evokes a darker and colder supernatural force.
Choice of Finishes:
"Premium" Finish (Hand Painted): The complete version, painted with an airbrush and brush, varnished to protect the brilliance of the colors.
"Raw" (DIY) model: Straight from the print (supports removed). The ideal blank canvas for tattoo artists or artists who want to practice painting this legendary face.

Note: Each mask is a unique piece of craftsmanship. The shading and "aged" effect are done by hand, giving each Hannya its own soul.
