Maneki neko (Lucky Cat)

Please note that Maneki neko is a lucky charm of business prosperity in Japan. It is also popular outside of Japan and is called as "lucky cat" or "welcome cat".

The pose of Maneki neko (shape) may be associated with believing in omens.


[Pose]

- Cat with right hand up (front leg): lucky with money

- Cat with left hand up (front leg): draw a log of customers

*By the way, there is a cat with both hands up but some Japanese may not like it because it may show that he/she is 'too greedy'.


[Color]

Tortoiseshell cat (white, black, yellow/brown) = business prosperity
Blue= Improvement of academic achievement (prayer for school success), road safety
Pink= Fulfillment in love
Black= Protecting against misfortune
Red= Illness prevention
*Please note that the interpretation (meaning) of the color may vary even in Japan.


[Place to decorate]

Because of its adorable looking, you can also use it as a mini object for shops and offices.
It is also recommended for those who like cats.


[Material/Production area]

Maneki neko is mainly ceramic (pottery).
