The Noh mask is of an older male with long white beard expressing wisdom. The Noh Samurai warrior/devil face used on this bracelet is one of the most common Selro faces. While the white faces typically represent exotic cultures, the color of the stones used in this bracelet are more associated with Tudor royalty of Britain.
