Choho Kiln Light Blue Sakura Kutani Lucky Cat

This lucky cat with a Sakura (cherry blossoms) pattern is by Choho Kiln. The pale light blue color contrasts with the red-painted Sakura, which seem as if they are floating in the sky, making the painting soothing to look at.

In Feng Shui, blue is the color of intelligence, and blue lucky cats are said to be effective in improving academic performance.

A lucky cat with its left hand raised is said to "invite people".

In the old days, Japanese farmers living with cats were said to prosper without crop damage because cats would drive away rats that damage their crops.
Today, also known as a "lucky cat," the beckoning cat is popular as a charm of good financial fortune.

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. Choho III continues to preserve traditional techniques and patterns while adopting the modern sense of new designs.
