A deep prayer for longevity contained in shrimp
Shrimp has long been one of the most beloved lucky charms among Japanese people, symbolizing longevity, health, and prosperity.
The shrimp's bent back represents longevity, its long whiskers symbolize a long life, and its repeated shedding of skin also symbolizes rebirth and growth.
Large shrimp in particular represent "long life" and "abundant health," and are imbued with even stronger wishes.
Its bright red color is said to have the power to ward off evil spirits and bring good fortune, making it an indispensable item at celebratory occasions.
In hanging dolls, the shrimp represent the family's earnest wish for their child to live a long, healthy life and fulfill their life.
The beauty of realistic shrimp created by artisanal skill
Made from soft crepe fabric, this large piece measures 8cm high and 19cm wide and beautifully captures the characteristics of a shrimp.
The vivid red color, the intricately patterned head, and even the long whiskers that are the shrimp's symbol have been carefully reproduced.
