Bastet Maneki Neko — A Guardian of Fortune and Grace

This exquisite Maneki Neko honors Bastet, the feline messenger of Ra and revered goddess of protection, harmony, and divine grace. Blending the sophistication of Egyptian symbolism with the refined ceramic tradition of Kōbeigama, this piece serves as both a talisman of prosperity and an object of enduring artistic value.

Artistic Pedigree & Symbolic Authority

• Symbol of Fortune and Protection: The figure raises its right paw in the traditional gesture believed to attract wealth and success, while its association with Bastet imbues the piece with protective energy for homes or professional spaces.

• Signature Blue Glaze: Finished in Kōbeigama’s iconic deep cobalt-blue glaze, meticulously applied in multiple layers and kiln-fired to produce a luminous, glass-like surface with subtle depth and nuance.

• Refined Gold Accents: Hand-applied gold highlights are sealed through a final firing, enhancing the figure’s radiant elegance without detracting from its refined restraint.

• Balanced Presence: With thoughtfully considered proportions, the sculpture makes an inviting statement for entryways, display counters, altars, or private collections.

Every aspect is handcrafted by Kōbeigama’s master artisans, ensuring precision, harmonious form, and lasting material integrity. The piece embodies cultural depth and aesthetic refinement rather than mere ornamentation.
