A small sun of a lucky cat. This Kutani maneki neko wears a warm yellow robe built up in moriage — raised white slip piped by hand onto the surface in dots, rosettes, and blossom sprays you can feel in relief — with a red collar and a round gold bell at its chest, and its left paw raised high in the gesture traditionally said to welcome people in.
Hand-painted dot-medallions in orange and blue, white floral sprays with green accents, yellow-ringed eyes, red inner ears, and fine whisker brushwork finish the piece; the base carries the kiln's red brush signature — 友山 (Yuzan) — and the 九谷 (Kutani) mark. Every cat is decorated individually, so patterns and colors vary slightly from piece to piece.
If you are opening a shop, launching a business, or working toward a money goal, this is your cat. In Japanese tradition, yellow and gold Maneki Neko are said to invite wealth and financial luck (金運, kin'un). Place it by the entrance or the register to greet customers, or on a home-office desk as a small, sunny reminder of prosperity — and its cheerful color makes it a natural congratulations gift for a grand opening, a promotion, a new home, or a fresh start.
