Japanese Porcelain Lucky Cat Statue Maneki Neko Set of 3 Art Fortune Sculpture BK486

Description

This is a three-piece Japanese Maneki Neko (Lucky Cat) porcelain set, consisting of one Kutani ware example and two Imari ware examples. The grouping presents variations in scale and decorative approach, making it suitable as a comparative display set for collectors of Kutani and Imari ceramics.


The left figure, attributed to Kutani ware, stands at 15.6 cm in height and displays the vibrant enamel decoration characteristic of Kutani porcelain. Kutani ceramics are known for bold overglaze colors and auspicious motifs often associated with prosperity and good fortune. The raised paw gesture of the Maneki Neko traditionally symbolizes the invitation of wealth and business success (kin-un).


The center and right figures are Imari ware examples. Imari porcelain, historically exported from Japan since the Edo period, is recognized for its refined cobalt blue underglaze combined with iron red and gold overglaze accents. The middle figure presents balanced coloration and compact proportion. The right figure shows visible damage and restoration (kizu and repair present), which has been clearly noted for accuracy and transparency.


Maneki Neko figures are widely regarded in Japanese culture as symbols of prosperity, commercial success, and household protection. Displayed together, the three sizes create graduated visual rhythm suitable for shop interiors, collectors of Japanese folk iconography, or enthusiasts of Kutani and Imari decorative arts.
