I carved the zodiac animal for the year 2026 (Year of the Horse). Only the upper part of the horse (a horse to ward off evil) = a horse to ward off evil With a sliced base Dimensions: 50mm x 18mm ⚫︎ Horse, Year 2026 The horse is a symbol of strength, dynamism, success, and progress, and is known as a lucky animal that brings good fortune, from the pun "going well" (umaku iku). ● Onyx (Black Agate) It is said to represent unwavering faith and support the achievement of goals. ● Yakusugi Cedar Among the cedar trees that grow naturally on Yakushima, which was registered as a World Heritage Site in 1993, only those that are 1,000 years old or more are called Yakusugi. The cedar trees of Yakushima can live for more than 3,000 years, so they are considered a symbol of longevity and a valuable, auspicious wood, playing on the words "Yakusugi" (Yakushima cedar) and "yakusugi" (passing through bad luck).
