The size of Ojime: 5/8\" Dia. It is finely carved Japanese Ojime in the design of Hotei by Staghorn. The detail is very fine. Facial expression is very nice. The condition of Ojime excellent other than one of top brass ring is missing which does not taking away the beauty of this Ojime. Dating from late Edo to early Meiji, 19c. Actual Ojime is better than my photos.Hotei. Male. The god of contentment and happiness, guardian of children, and patron of bartenders. Hotei has a cheerful face and a big belly. He is supposedly based on an actual person, and is widely recognized outside of Japan as the Fat, Laughing Buddha. He carries a large cloth bag over his back (Nunobukuro, lit. = cloth bag), one that never empties, for he uses it to feed the poor and needy. It includes an inexhaustible cache of treasures, including food and drink. Indeed, the Japanese spelling of Hoteiliterally means cloth bag. He also holds a Chinese fan called an oogi (said to be a wish giving fan -- in the distant past, this type of fan was used by the aristocracy to indicate to vassals that their requests would be granted). Hotei is most likely based on the itinerant 10th-century Chinese Buddhist monk and hermit Budaishi (d. 917), who is said to be an incarnation of Miroku Bodhisattva (Maitreya in Sanskrit).PAYMENT METHOD FOR DOMESTIC SALES, WE ACCEPT PAYPAL, CREDIT CARD (VISA/MASTER CARD/AMERICAN EXPRESS).
