Rare and authentic vintage Japanese Noh Theater mask necklace. This beautiful piece features a hand-carved pendant of Okina (the "Old Man"), a character symbolizing wisdom, peace, and longevity in traditional Japanese culture. The Details: • Material: Exquisitely carved natural material (likely bovine bone) with a rich, creamy aged patina. • Signature: The reverse of the pendant features an original artist’s hanko (seal), indicating a hand-crafted piece. • Design: The pendant is suspended from a double strand of hand-knotted carved beads. • Clasp: Classic vintage silver-tone filigree "fishhook" slide clasp in excellent working order. • Length: Approximately 20" total length (rests at the mid-chest/matinee level). Pendant is roughly 1.75" tall. Condition: Excellent vintage condition with no chips or cracks. The natural material shows a beautiful variation in color, typical of its age. Perfect for collectors of Mid-Century Japanese jewelry, Mori Girl aesthetic, or fans of traditional Asian art. More photos to come!! #VintageJapanese #NohMask #HandCarved #MidCenturyJewelry #Okina
