Hariko is the Japanese art of making animal figurines from papier-mâché, a craft dating back to the Mingei folk art period.
A riff on the traditional hariko, these figurines feature a ‘maneki neko’ or ‘lucky cat’ full of personality.
They’re created by an organisation near Nara, Japan, which offers jobs and opportunities for persons with disabilities and otherwise facing barriers to employment. Each piece is made and painted by hand.
Comes gift boxed.
