Shinkoyasu Jizo is a modest, quietly luminous figure of Jizo Bosatsu, finished with a soft gold plating that reads warm and clear rather than ornate.
At 15 cm tall, it is sized for close, personal spaces—an altar shelf, a bedside table, or a small corner where attention is steady and private.
About this piece
Made in Japan by skilled artisans, this statue is produced in zinc alloy and finished with gold plating applied with restraint to preserve gentle highlights and a calm surface. The model follows the established Koyasu Jizo tradition, presented here as “Shinkoyasu” (a renewed form) with a quieter, inward sensibility suited to contemporary homes and personal practice. Its intentionally modest scale and simplified presence reflect a long-standing approach in Japanese Buddhist craft: creating durable, approachable images for everyday settings rather than large, formal temple display.
Cultural note
In Japan, Jizo (Jizō Bosatsu) is widely regarded as a compassionate protector closely connected with everyday life, often associated with care for children, family wellbeing, and safe passage through uncertain times. Images of Jizo are approached less as decoration and more as a focus for sincere intention—whether that is prayer, remembrance, or quiet reflection. A respectful mindset is simple: place the figure somewhere clean and settled, avoid treating it casually, and handle it with care (many people briefly bow or bring their hands together when greeting or finishing). Offerings such as water or flowers are sometimes made, but the most important element is steady, considerate attention.

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.
This is recommended if you want your statue to be more than an object — a presence you can practice with. This option is not required.
