Maneki-neko on a tai
A lucky beckoning cat riding a red sea bream: two of Japan’s most beloved good-luck symbols brought together in one handmade ceramic art piece, made by Natalia in Barcelona.
In Japan, the maneki-neko, the beckoning cat with one paw raised, is believed to invite good luck and prosperity, while the tai, or red sea bream, is a symbol of celebration and good fortune. This piece brings them together: a white lucky cat with black spots sitting on a bright red tai, finished with golden details.
It is a purely decorative object, made to be displayed as a small piece of art. Every part is shaped and painted by hand in Natalia’s studio in Barcelona, so slight variations in the glaze and color are part of its character. There is only one of this exact figurine.
