Earthy kitsune fox spirit kami raku sculpture

Here is a sweet, friendly, and simple Shinto Inari kitsune fox spirit statue. He feels very happy and contented, and very close to earth too. I can imagine him hiding under a pile of autumn leaves or snuggling down into his den for winter! I think he can help us to be more calm, rest more, and reconnect to earth and nature. He's 3.4cm tall.

The fox and his cup are made of stoneware, fired once, glazed in non-toxic glaze, and raku fired for the beautiful effects of fire and smoke.

Kitsune are the fox-messengers of the Shinto kami Inari Okami: the deity of rice, sake, agriculture, fertility, tea, and prosperity, among other things, kitsune foxes guard Inari shrines and carry his/her messages to us.

Through my work, I hope to bring a little nature, peace, gentleness, and spirit to the world. I make all of my pieces entirely by hand with natural materials.
