Tanuki Golden Baubles "Merry Christmas" Greeting Card
Japanese tanuki statues are ceramic figures that come in various sizes and designs, often placed outside shops, restaurants, and homes across Japan. While tanuki are real animals found throughout both rural and urban areas of Japan—commonly referred to as "raccoon dogs"—they hold a special place in Japanese folklore as well. These statues typically portray the tanuki with a large belly, a large hat, and a sake bottle—not too different from Santa Claus! Tanuki statues are often depicted with exaggeratedly large… “baubles,” which symbolize prosperity and good fortune. the Studio Ghibli film, Pom Poko, revolves around the lives of these animals in an ever-evolving Japan.
