Racoon
Catalog note / 解説
Statues of Tanuki (racoon) are found almost everywhere in Japan, especially outside restaurants and bars, as they are the familiar spirits for these places. The Tanuki is most often depicted with a round tummy, a "tokkuri", ceramic flask for sake wine, a promissory note and a hat made from straw.
