A compact Jurojin figure made in Japan in the Takaoka Dōki metalworking tradition, cast with careful detail and a calm, settled presence.
Jurojin is commonly shown as an elderly sage with a long beard, carrying a staff and a scroll—an image associated with longevity and the wisdom of a life well lived. This piece brings that classic form into a small, weighty sculpture suited to a desk, shelf, or personal display.
About this piece
This sculpture is produced by metal casting in zinc alloy, using techniques associated with Takaoka Dōki—an established casting tradition from Takaoka, Japan, with a history of more than four centuries. The model follows the widely recognized Jurojin iconography (elderly figure, staff, and scroll), a form that developed through long-standing workshop practice for devotional and cultural objects and has been repeated across generations for consistency of appearance and finish.
Cultural note
In Japan, Jurojin is known as one of the Seven Lucky Gods (Shichifukujin) and is approached as a benevolent figure connected with longevity and quiet wisdom, often appearing in folk-religious settings alongside other auspicious deities. Images like this are typically treated with simple respect: placed in a clean, settled spot, handled with care, and regarded as more than mere decoration even when displayed in everyday spaces. Many people keep such figures where they can be seen regularly, with an attitude of gratitude and mindfulness rather than casual use.

Consecration (Eye-opening Ceremony)
You can choose an option to consecrate this statue before shipping from Japan. If you select this option, we will bring the statue for an eye-opening ceremony and ship it to you after the ritual is complete.
