Exquisite boar and lion statues
Very elegant design and high quality work.
In Japanese, wild boars are called "pig" (イノシシ), while those domesticated and raised by humans are called "dolphins" (ブタ). According to legend, people born in the year of the wild boar are particularly strong, brave, sincere and humble. There is also a Japanese idiom "pig rushes forward" (ちょとつもうしん), which describes being motivated, fearless and moving forward. In many legends of Japanese mythology, wild boars are related to fighting and protection, and are also messengers or even incarnations of gods. For example, in the "Kojiki", the white wild boar encountered by Japanese warrior Osamu Japan on Mount Ibuki during his Eastern Expedition. It is the true form of the mountain god.
