商品説明

The "Hitotome Kozo Pendant" is a unique and adorable piece created by Satoyamajin Tetsushi Yano in collaboration with Waen using Japanese Tobe ware techniques.

Tetsushi Yano has always been known for his cheerful and gentle style in his paintings, and his soothing works have garnered overwhelming support from women.

The Hitotsume Kozou (Hitotsume Kozou) drawn by Yano Tetsushi is a monster that appears in Japanese folklore and monster stories. As its name suggests, it has the appearance of a kozou (child) with a large single eye in the middle of its face. It is said to be mischievous and often scares people on the streets at night. It is a monster that often appears in ukiyo-e and ghost stories from the Edo period in Japan and is familiar to the common people.

Wearing Hitotsume Kozo as a talisman is said to ward off bad luck from entering the home or workplace and to protect peaceful daily lives.

This is a very valuable piece that conveys the kindness and playfulness that underpins Tetsushi Yano's work, and is fascinating in its unique approach in which tradition and modernity coexist.

Tobe ware

This is a type of ceramic produced in Tobe-cho, Ehime Prefecture, Japan. This pottery is characterized by a design based on white clay, with geometric patterns and natural shapes painted in colors such as blue and green on top. Tobe ware has a long history, beginning in the Edo period. Initially used as daily necessities and tea ceremony utensils, it is now also highly valued as a work of art. Tobe ware is attractive for its ease of use, simplicity that blends into everyday life, and the warmth that can only be achieved through handcrafting. Its simple yet refined beauty continues to be loved by many people.
