Japanese Lucky Tuxedo Cat Maneki Neko Folk Art Poster

Decorate your walls in style with this unique, colourful folk art poster! The Japanese Maneki Neko, or Beckoning Cat, widely popular in Japan, is believed to bring abundance to its owner. It is often used in feng shui, is made in a wide variety of styles and colours, and is often displayed in Japanese places of business. The most common belief is that if the cat's left paw is raised, it attracts helpful people, customers and business, and if the right paw is raised, it attracts good luck and wealth. If both paws are raised, it attracts both. In this uplifting, whimsical artwork, this lovely tuxedo (black and white) Maneki Neko has her right paw raised to attract good luck and wealth to its lucky owner. She holds a gold coin, modelled after ancient Japanese high-value coins, which bears the Japanese characters for "great fortune." She is surrounded by a dark blue border featuring a night-sky-and-stars motif matching that on her neckerchief.
