I carved the Year of the Horse for Reiwa 8. With a sliced base Dimensions: 37 x 24mm ⚫︎ Horse, Reiwa 8 The horse is a symbol of strength, dynamism, success, and progress, and is known as a lucky animal that brings good fortune, from the pun "umaku iku" (to go well). ● Onyx (Black Agate) It is said to represent unwavering faith and support the achievement of goals. ● Yakusugi (Yakushima Cedar) Among the cedar trees that grow naturally on Yakushima, which was registered as a World Heritage Site in 1993, only those that are 1,000 years old or more are called Yakusugi. The cedar trees of Yakushima can live for over 3,000 years, so they are considered a symbol of longevity and a valuable, auspicious wood, playing on the words "yaku sugi" (passing through bad luck).
