Japanese Kiyomizu-yaki lucky cat, red ground, dragon and phoenix Each size: height 14.5cm width 9cm Material: porcelain Product description: OLZ exclusive product, from the concept and drawing of our store, means dragon and phoenix bring good luck The ancient animal spirit worship mainly includes four categories: bird, dragon, dog, and tiger. The bird spirit represents the rice culture of the south, the dragon spirit represents the nomadic culture of the northern grassland, the dog spirit represents the domestication culture of the mountains, and the tiger spirit represents the hunting culture of the mountains. Among these four animal spirits, the bird spirit and the dragon spirit are the most prominent, and eventually evolved into the two major totems of the north and the south, namely the so-called "Phoenix Soaring and Dragon Soaring": the north respects the dragon, which is called Dragon Soaring; the south (especially Chu) worships the phoenix, which is called Phoenix Soaring. For a long time, the two major totems of the north and the south, "Dragon and Phoenix Bring Good Luck", were on par with each other in the land of China, indicating a kind of auspicious atmosphere. This should be the original meaning of "dragon and phoenix presenting good fortune" Made in Japan Introduction to Kiyomizu-yaki "Kyoto-yaki" is a type of pottery that has been spread mainly in the foothills of Higashiyama since the early Edo period, with the background of the tea ceremony. On the other hand, "Kiyomizu-yaki" is pottery made at Gojozaka, the entrance to Kiyomizu-dera Temple. Currently, all pottery fired in Kyoto is called "Kyoto-yaki/Kiyomizu-yaki" This glaze, called crystal glaze, has the characteristic of crystals precipitating during the melting and cooling process, and the beautiful flower crystal (はなけっしょう) vessel looks like a flower blooming on the surface. Most importantly, the crystals become larger and take on various shapes, and the same pattern cannot be made, so each piece is a unique work https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54620564332_5254f1ce2a_b.jpg&width=1000 Japanese Lucky Cat Daruma Store (Ourlittlezone) Established in 2018, and provides online shopping services Loved by local and overseas customers Since 2021, we have worked with Kyoto Kiyomizu-yaki Workshop to launch original Lucky Cat and Daruma decorations.
