{"product_id":"ebisu-and-daikoku","title":"Ebisu and Daikoku","description":"\u003cp\u003eA wonderfully folky pair of Ebisu and Daikoku. The standing figure with the flat cap is Ebisu, the god of fishermen and commerce, and the seated figure, hunched under a large sack or rice bale, depicts Daikoku, the god of wealth and the harvest, who is typically shown with a treasure sack over his shoulder. The two are paired as household good-luck deities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heavy black, sooty surface suggests they may have sat near a hearth or kitchen for a long time. Such figures were often kept as kamado-gami (hearth and kitchen protectors) in Japanese homes, and the accumulated soot patina is considered part of their charm and age.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mingei Archive","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49589847130267,"sku":null,"price":600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0584\/2685\/1483\/files\/846DB21C-6696-4C13-93BD-203509095575.jpg?v=1789929245","url":"https:\/\/mingeiarchive.com\/products\/ebisu-and-daikoku","provider":"Mingei Archive","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
