This is "Lion riding on a ball 玉乗獅子," a bronze sculpture.
"Riding on a Ball Lion" symbolizes "warding off evil" and "inviting good fortune". According to tradition, the lion receives the ball from spiritual beings such as gods or tengu, and the lion expresses its gratitude and joy by performing a dance of thanks and ecstasy. The ball is considered one of the lion's favorite things.
The fierce expression of the lion with the ball is for warding off evil, chasing away evil spirits. The ball lion is typically displayed at the entrance or in the tokonoma alcove. Lions, or what are called "shishi" in Japanese, have been considered special creatures since ancient times, symbolizing protection of the gods and warding off evil spirits. Placing them at the entrance or in the tokonoma is believed to prevent evil spirits from entering the house.
