Maneki-neko/ Fortune Cat-Japan

HELLO,everyne~I am Janet,today i want to introduce you Maneki-neko!!!


The maneki-neko is a common Japanese figurine, usually made of ceramic in modern times, which is often believed to bring good luck to the owner.
The maneki-neko is sometimes also called the welcoming cat, lucky cat, money cat, happy cat, or fortune cat in English.
Maneki-neko come in different colors, styles, and degrees of ornateness. Common colors are white, black, gold and sometimes red.
In addition to ceramic figurines, maneki-neko can be found as keychains, piggy banks, air fresheners, house-plant pots, and miscellaneous ornaments, as well as large statues.

 Maneki-neko are sometimes called the "Chinese lucky cat", as it is also increasingly popular among Chinese merchants.
