Maneki Neko Lucky Cat Right Paw Raised Red Gold Keychain

This cute, colorful, unique hand-drawn, hand-painted watercolor bobtail calico cat is a maneki neko, the iconic Japanese lucky cat, also known as a beckoning cat, happy cat, money cat or fortune cat. Widely popular in Japan, China and other Asian countries, this kitty is often displayed in places of business, and is believed to bring abundance to its owner. The traditional calico cat is considered the luckiest maneki neko of all. Her right paw is raised (looks like waving to Westerners, but is actually a Japanese beckoning gesture), which is said to attract good luck and monetary abundance. She holds a high-value gold coin and is adorned with a bib, collar and gold bell, all of which symbolize wealth, prosperity and abundance. The cat sits on a red background with a brushed gold foil border. a great gift for kids, tweens, teens, entrepreneurs, business owners, and the young-at-heart of all ages.
