Product Overview

The beckoning cat, or maneki-neko, comes from Japan, where a raised paw is said to invite good fortune, a figure you'll see by the doors of shops and restaurants. A small carved black obsidian lucky cat figure, made in China. Obsidian is a natural volcanic glass with a smooth, glassy black surface and a reflective quality. The carving is 5 x 3.5 x 2.5cm and weighs 26g. It sits naturally by a doorway or on a desk, in the spot the maneki-neko traditionally occupies.

FAQ

How should I care for it? Dust with a soft dry cloth and keep it out of prolonged direct sunlight, which can fade some stones over time.

Will mine look exactly like the photo? Each figure is carved from natural stone, so colour, markings and grain vary slightly from piece to piece.

What does the raised paw mean? In the maneki-neko tradition a raised paw is said to beckon good fortune; which paw is raised can carry its own meaning.
