Japanese culture is extremely rich and refined. Between the art of the table, calligraphy and ceramics, Japan has established itself as a country deeply attached to its heritage. It is distinguished by its many traditions, often expressed through Japanese accessories with shapes, colors and patterns recognized throughout the world.
Among traditional Japanese accessories, we find kimonos which are a true symbol of Japanese culture. The folding fan, used in artistic fields such as nihon buyô dance and kakubi theater. The famous Japanese lucky charm Maneki-neko, a cat statuette, is also one of the most popular Japanese accessories.
Japanese cuisine, differentiated by its raw foods and tamed across continents, also has its flagship Japanese accessory: the bento. This box divided into different categories allows you to offer a balanced meal in a precise and aesthetic way, values that reflect Japanese culture.
In Japan, lucky charms are numerous and are an integral part of culture and society. Each Japanese lucky charm has its history: between beliefs, legends and superstitions. They are often represented by a very specific object for which the details of colors, shapes and patterns are of paramount importance.
The famous Maneki-neko cat is the best-known Japanese lucky charm, but we can also count among them the red octopus which is synonymous with agility, grace and flexibility. Daruma is also one of the Japanese lucky charms most ingrained in Japanese culture. This is a figure inspired by the Indian monk Bodhidharma, dressed in a red robe.
