Top 3 Japanese souvenirs! The ever-popular “raccoon figurine”
Size: W100×D90×H130(mm)
Manufacturing location: Shigaraki (Shiga Prefecture)

Cute raccoon pottery is Shigaraki ware, one of Japan’s leading pottery.
Shigaraki ware raccoons are very auspicious ornaments and are very popular as gifts.
Shigaraki ware raccoons are known as ornaments that bring various good luck, such as business prosperity, financial luck, good fortune, protection from evil, and luck in games.
The word play on the word “ta” (other) and “nuki” (to remove) in tanuki means “to remove others,” and it is imbued with the wish to succeed in business by outwitting competitors. In addition, raccoon figurines made from Shigaraki ware in Shiga Prefecture are imbued with eight auspicious symbols called “Hassoengi.”

Shigaraki ware raccoon figurines have the following meanings.
Face: Always smiling and business prosperity
Hat: Protect yourself from unexpected misfortune
Eyes: Look around and be attentive to make correct judgments
Bankbook: Build trusting relationships with customers
Testicles: Blessed with good fortune
Tail: End things big and steady
Sake bottle: Acquire virtue and never worry about food and drink
Stomach: Calmness and the ability to make big decisions at times
It is said that Shigaraki ware tanuki became popular throughout the country when Emperor Showa visited Shigaraki in 1951 and Shigaraki tanuki carrying Japanese flags were lined up along the road to welcome him.
