Komainu
฿6,800.00
A cast bronze work from Takaoka, Japan, a city renowned for master metal craftsmanship.
The komainu is a traditional guardian figure in Japanese belief, placed to protect spaces, ward off negative influences, and enhance auspicious energy.
This piece is produced using the lost-wax casting technique, with the surface finished in a traditional patinated bronze layer, reflecting the skill of master metal artisans.
The sacred jewel beneath the lion’s paw is delicately openworked with fine detailing, symbolizing fortune, protection, and stability.
Ideal for display in an entry hall, tea room, or study, where it serves both as a spiritual guardian and a sculptural art object.
