Onigawara are roof tiles or roof ornaments in the shape of a demon's face, commonly found in traditional Japanese architecture. They are used to decorate the edges of roofs, and are believed to protect buildings from evil spirits. Onigawara are typically made of clay or ceramic, and are shaped and painted to resemble a demon's face with fangs and a menacing expression. They are often found on temples, shrines, and other traditional buildings, and are an iconic element of Japanese architecture.
