Haritsuna Shrine in Inuyama City, Aichi Prefecture. These are earthenware carp hanging ornaments that once contained omikuji (fortune slips). There are two types, reddish-purple and gold, which come as a set. Each has its own unique color and expression, giving them a simple, rustic charm. They have red strings attached, allowing you to hang them on hooks on walls or shelves. There is a small hole (about 5mm) in the belly, where the omikuji used to be. There is nothing inside now. They are small enough to fit in the palm of your hand, making them light and easy to handle. The earthenware has a gentle texture that blends seamlessly into a Japanese-style space. #Carp #Koi (carp) #Inuyama #Hanging #Earthenware #JapaneseGoods
