━━━━━ Rarity ━━━━━ This item is a Shigaraki-yaki (Shigaraki ware) version, exclusive to Shiga Prefecture. Made in 2003 (approximately 23 years ago), it's a highly rare, discontinued item that's no longer available. The classic appearance of Hello Kitty dressed as a Shigaraki-yaki tanuki is very Japanese, and the fact that it's an unopened item with a tag makes it particularly valuable among collectors. ━━━━━ Product Details ━━━━━ 【2003】 Shiga Limited Kitty (Shigaraki Version) A lovely figure wearing a "tanuki" costume, the symbol of Shigaraki-yaki, and holding a sake bottle.
