What is a Hyottoko Mask? 🎭🇯🇵

The Hyottoko mask depicts a comical male figure with a puckered, sideways mouth—often wearing a headscarf tied around the head. Legend has it that he blows fire through a bamboo tube, and his expression reflects this quirky act 🔥.

Hyottoko often appears alongside the female Okame mask in:

  • Japanese folk dances such as kagura

  • Festival performances and comedic skits

  • Decorative arts in homes and shops for luck and laughter ✨
