Choho Kiln Black Sakura Oinori Neko Kutani Lucky Cat 3.7in

This adorable lucky cat, crafted by Choho Kiln, features a charming pose and is adorned with a cherry blossom motif set on a black base. This porcelain lucky cat is from of a series called "Oinori Neko," where "Oinori" means "to pray" and "Neko" stands for "cats" in Japanese.

Filled with Japanese tradition and good fortune, this lucky cat is excellent for your house decor and brings good luck to you and your loved ones.　

Choho Kiln was established at the end of the Taisho era (1912-1926), and has continued to operate as a wholesaler and manufacturer of Kutani Ware.

The kiln is characterized by bold painting and delicate "mori-e", three dimensional decorations, which are created by freely using green, yellow, purple, navy blue, and red color paints, a style called Kutani "gosai (five colors)". 

In recent years, their main products have been interior decorations and ornaments. The third generation Choho continues to preserve traditional techniques and patterns while adopting the modern sense of new designs.
