This piece is suited to collectors and practitioners who appreciate esoteric iconography and the focused, uncompromising expressions found in wrathful deity forms.
About this piece
Carved from tsuge (boxwood), this small figure is made through traditional wood-carving methods, with the three faces rendered in compact relief to preserve clarity at a small scale. The model follows established Japanese Esoteric Buddhist (Mikkyō) iconographic conventions for Sanmen Daikokuten—an esoteric form associated with Mahākāla—developed within temple lineages and workshop traditions to provide a distinct, formal image for ritual and devotional settings. This form exists as part of that transmitted visual vocabulary: a specific, recognizable type created so the deity can be represented consistently across practice contexts and collections.
Cultural note
In Japan, images of Daikokuten appear in both widely familiar, benevolent forms and more esoteric manifestations; Sanmen Daikokuten is understood within Mikkyō as a protective figure associated with Mahākāla, approached with seriousness and restraint. Such images are typically regarded as more than decoration: they are treated as devotional icons, kept in a clean, respectful place, and handled with calm attention (often with clean hands and a mindful attitude). Many people choose a stable, slightly elevated spot where the figure will not be treated casually, and avoid placing it directly on the floor or in areas associated with disorder.
