Masks have long played an important role in Japanese culture: in religious ceremonies, dance, Noh theater, and military costume. For samurai, masks served as a principal face defense and helped secure the helmet to the head more firmly. The majority of masks were half-length (mempo), covering the nose and the face below the eyes. Their iron surfaces are either lacquered or a dark russet finish; the interiors are usually lacquered red.

Auction comparison:
Compare a closely related tengu mempo, dated 18th-19th century, at Christie’s, Japanese Art & Design Including Arts of The Samurai, 9 November 2011, London, lot 390 (sold for GBP 5,000).
