This is a tiger clay bell sold at Kurama-yama in Kyoto. The komainu (guardian lion-dogs) at Kurama-dera Temple are not komainu, but tigers. Tigers are said to be the divine beasts that serve Bishamonten, one of the principal deities. Because Bishamonten appeared in the month of the tiger, on the day of the tiger, and at the hour of the tiger, tigers are especially revered on Kurama-yama. ◼︎Size: 7cm (height) x 5cm (width) x 4.5cm (depth) Although it is new and unused, it has acquired a sandalwood-like incense scent because it was stored with incense. Thank you for your understanding. Packing materials will be recycled.
