Lucky Cat Statue - Large Japanese Maneki Neko Fortune Beckoning Cat for Home & Office Decor - Brings Good Luck & Prosperity - Perfect for Desk, Shelf, or Gift

Product Description

This calico cat makes an impact not only with its relatively large size but also with its friendly expression. Its eyes and whiskers are painted with an artful touch, while its arched back is a characteristic of the Furuseto-style lucky cat figurines. A festive charm is added with the colorful collar decorating its neck, rendered in deep hues of green, blue, and red, with white floral motifs and gold accents.

The distinctive style of this maneki neko appeared during the late Meiji period (1868 CE–1912 CE) and features a slender, arched back. The maneki neko is a beloved symbol in Japan, believed to bring good fortune. Depending on which paw is raised the cat’s image has a different meaning: the right paw attracts wealth, while the left invites guests. With its large size and life-like appearance, this figurine is an ideal decoration for your home’s entrance to give a warm and welcoming first impression to your guests.
