About this piece
This statue is hand-carved from hinoki (Japanese cypress) by a busshi (Buddhist sculptor) and then meticulously hand-painted by Takamura Chihiro, a master colorist recognized for reviving classical Japanese wood-sculpture coloring techniques. Color is applied freehand in multiple layers using traditional paints and natural mineral pigments, creating a vivid yet balanced surface that emphasizes the figure’s facial expression and overall character. The form follows established Japanese sculptural traditions for Ebisu images, made to present an inviting, personable figure with refined finishing rather than a purely decorative silhouette.
Cultural note
In Japan, Ebisu is widely known as a familiar deity of good fortune, closely connected with everyday work, commerce, and the sea, and is often appreciated for his friendly, approachable character. Images like this may be kept in homes and shops as a way to acknowledge gratitude for one’s livelihood and to maintain a respectful, positive intention toward daily efforts. When displaying Japanese religious images, a common approach is to place them somewhere clean and settled, treat them with quiet respect, and handle them with care—more like a valued presence than a casual ornament.

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.
