Shigaraki ware is a type of pottery made in Shigaraki-cho, Koka City, Shiga Prefecture. It is counted as one of the six oldest kilns in Japan and is said to have a long history of over 1200 years. It was designated as a traditional craft by the country in 1976. A lovely figure that embodies good luck. It is an ornament that is said to have various blessings, as described in ``Shigaraki Tanuki Hassoenki.'' A play on the word raccoon dog, it symbolizes the wish to "stand out from the crowd" and is often displayed in front of storefronts as a lucky charm for a prosperous business.
