A compact hand-carved wooden figure of Daikokuten by Buddhist sculptor Yoku Fujita, made to sit comfortably in everyday living spaces.
Carved from fragrant Kiso hinoki (Japanese cypress), the piece has a gentle, approachable presence and a modest scale that suits a shelf, desk, or small display area.
About this piece
This statue is hand-carved from hinoki (Japanese cypress), shaped and finished by Yoku Fujita, who has spent over thirty years carving figures associated with good fortune. The model follows the familiar Japanese Daikokuten form—typically shown with a small mallet and a treasure bag—developed through long-standing workshop and temple-image traditions and adapted into small, home-scale carvings intended to be kept close to daily life.
Cultural note
In Japan, Daikokuten is widely known both through Buddhist contexts and as one of the Seven Lucky Gods (Shichifukujin), associated in a broad sense with household well-being, food, and steady prosperity. Images like this are often treated with simple respect: placed in a clean, settled spot, approached with a calm intention, and handled with care (many people avoid placing such figures directly on the floor or in cluttered areas). While practices vary by household, it is common to acknowledge the figure quietly—without making it performative—much like keeping a valued symbol of gratitude and everyday stability.
