(3.0cm tall by 7.7cm long) Here is a very happy and gentle kitsune kami sculpture. This one feels so full of joy to me and so kind; I very much hope it can help us to remember the contented quiet of evening. It would be lovely in a kamidana shrine, as a spirit guide, or just as a companion.
This fox sculpture is made of stoneware, glazed with non-toxic glaze, and raku fired for the amazing gifts of flame and smoke.
Kitsune are the fox-messengers of the Shinto kami Inari Okami: the deity of rice, sake, agriculture, fertility, tea, and prosperity, among other things. Kitsune foxes guard Inari shrines and carry his/her messages to us.
Through my work, I hope to bring a little nature, peace, gentleness, and spirit to the world. I make all of my pieces entirely by hand with only natural materials.
