About this product

What you will notice in the room
  • The yellow finish feels sunny without being loud, making it easy to place among books, plants or everyday desk objects.
  • Red and gold accents catch the eye, giving the figure a festive look without needing much space around it.
  • The clear display box keeps the cat visible from the front while giving it a neat, collected feel.
  • The solar-powered waving paw adds quiet motion when placed where it can catch light.
  • Its expression has the friendly charm people look for in a lucky cat, more companionable than formal.
Resin with a bright decorative finish

The figure is made from resin, finished in soft yellow with red and gold detailing. It has the smooth, easy-to-place feel of modern decorative maneki neko pieces, made for everyday display rather than ceremonial use.

Where to place it

Set it on a windowsill, counter, desk or shelf where light can reach the solar panel and the waving motion can be seen. Keep the clear box clean with a soft dry cloth, and avoid damp areas so the finish stays fresh.

The beckoning cat tradition

The maneki neko is a Japanese beckoning cat, often placed near entrances, counters and home displays as a symbol of welcome and good fortune. The raised paw is based on a Japanese beckoning gesture, with the palm facing outward rather than curling upward in the Western style. Over time, these cats became popular far beyond Japan, especially in shops and restaurants, where their friendly posture carries a simple message: come in, feel welcome, and share in a little everyday abundance.

Size and details

Made from resin and weighing 280 g. The figure is yellow with red and gold detailing and comes presented inside a clear display box.

Common questions

Does the paw move?
