*Okame is originally an old Japanese mask - the female half of a traditional Japanese theater pair. It always represents a lovely, smiling Japanese woman who brings happiness and good fortune to any man she marries. The male mask is called Hyottoko. They are traditional Japanese masks used in festivals, performing arts, etc. and considered an important element in Japanese culture. Their faces are often seen in Japanese art and craftmanship.
