Thank you for viewing. I believe this was purchased during the Showa era. While there may be some age-related deterioration, the red color of the body remains beautiful, and the way it sways its head is very charming. This is a papier-mâché Akabeko, a red cow figure. It is said to ward off evil, bring good fortune, pray for a bountiful harvest, and is also considered a guardian deity for children, making it a lucky charm that is still popular today. Length: Approximately 12.5cm Height: Approximately 8cm This is an old item that has been displayed for a long time. Please check the condition in the images and understand that this is a used item before purchasing. *The box is not included.
