Carved Wooden Standing Daikokuten Figure with Natural Wood Base, Japan
A carved wooden standing figure of Daikokuten (だいこくてん), one of the Seven Lucky Gods of traditional Japanese belief. Daikokuten is shown with a round, smiling face, holding his uchide no kozuchi (the wish-granting mallet that brings wealth) and standing on rice bales, signifying thriving business, abundant harvests and the blessing of good fortune. The figure is heavy and substantial, upright and full in form, and is paired with a base cut from a natural log slice, giving it a steady overall presence — well suited as the centerpiece of a shop or a home entryway. (This is a large item; you are welcome to view and purchase it in person.)
