About this piece
This work is made with a Shippo-yaki style finish, built through layered enamels and high-temperature firing to achieve intricate coloration and a lustrous surface. The approach follows a long-standing Japanese decorative tradition associated with “shippo” (the seven treasures), developed to create richly colored, durable finishes with fine gradations. This form is produced as part of an established tradition of making Kissyō-ten images for households and commemorative occasions, where a carefully finished figure is valued as a crafted object as much as a devotional one.
Cultural note
In Japan, Kissyō-ten (Kichijōten) is honored within Buddhist tradition as a benevolent figure associated with auspiciousness, harmony, and household well-being; she is also known in relation to Bishamonten as part of a protective divine family. Images like this are commonly approached with a quiet, respectful mindset—kept in a clean place, oriented thoughtfully, and handled with care as you would a valued religious image. Many people avoid placing such figures directly on the floor or in cluttered areas, and treat them as something to be acknowledged rather than used as casual décor.
