Bring a generous, joyful symbol of luck, prosperity, and protection into your home or shop with this porcelain Maneki Neko piggy bank from Yakushigama (薬師窯). The Seven Gods of Fortune (Shichifukujin) are hand-painted across the body of a Fukusuke-style beckoning cat — combining two of Japan's most cherished good-luck motifs in a single, sizeable centerpiece.

Workshop & tradition

Yakushigama is a kiln operated by Chuugai Toen in Seto City, Aichi — one of Japan's "Six Ancient Kilns," with more than a thousand years of pottery history. The "saie" (multi-color overglaze) maneki neko is one of Yakushigama's signature lines. Each piece is hand-finished with the Shichifukujin: Ebisu, Daikoku, Bishamon, Benzaiten, Fukurokuju, Jurojin, and Hotei.

Use cases

  • Centerpiece on a shop counter, café register, or tea-house entry
  • Lucky-cat decor for an entryway, home office, or living-room shelf
  • Working coin bank — drop in coins through the slot, retrieve via the bottom plug
  • Traditional gift for shop openings, new business launches, anniversaries, housewarmings, and cat-loving collectors

FAQ

Is this a real coin bank or just decorative? Both — there's a coin slot on top and a removable plug on the bottom for retrieving coins.

What does "Fukusuke" mean? Fukusuke (福助) is a traditional Japanese good-luck figure depicted in a kneeling pose with an oversized head — historically placed in shops to attract customers. This piece blends the Fukusuke posture with the maneki neko form.

Who are the Seven Lucky Gods? The Shichifukujin: Ebisu (commerce), Daikoku (wealth), Bishamon (warriors), Benzaiten (arts), Fukurokuju (longevity), Jurojin (wisdom), and Hotei (happiness).

Is this microwave or dishwasher safe? No — for decorative use and coin storage only. Handle with care; dust with a soft cloth.
