Feature 1 of Laughing Onigawara

A lucky charm to protect your home with a smile.

In recent architectural styles, onigawara have become less common decorations. Although many people may not be familiar with them, onigawara are a part of traditional Japanese culture with a history of 1,400 years, and have been valued as an evil-doer to protect houses and families.

Onigawara, which can be displayed indoors, is a new type of item that can incorporate traditional Japanese culture and craftsmanship into daily life, regardless of architectural style. It is recommended for use as a house amulet or as an amulet to protect the family and ward off evil.

Feature 2 of Laughing Onigawara

Rich expressions created by onimists

"Oni-shi" refers to the craftsmen who make onigawara. Onigawara, which have a three-dimensional design, are made by hand and require a great deal of skill. These laughing devil tiles are also carefully produced one by one by Atsushi Yamashita, a devil craftsman, with no compromise made in the smallest details.

The expression on the face of the ogre, which is so bold and laughing from all angles, seems to make people forget about the notion that ogres are frightening. The inorganic texture of the tiles gives them a warmth that can be attributed to the skill and sincerity of the craftsmen who created them.

Walnut is used for the base of the onigawara. Walnut is a popular material for furniture and wooden goods, and is characterized by its deep color.

Wall mountable! Choice of Styles

Laughing Onigawara can be displayed not only stationary but also hung on a wall. The main unit comes with a wooden board to be used as a stand when stationary or as a hook when hanging on the wall, and screws for hanging on the wall. The accessories are stored behind the tiles upon arrival.

For those who do not want to put as many small items as possible, hanging on the wall is a very convenient way to display a laughing devil's face. The three-dimensionality of onigawara, which is not found in paintings, is one of their characteristics, so they can be hung on the wall in any space and still have a strong sense of presence.

In addition, to prevent the Laughing Tile from slipping when placed stationary, there is a silicon non-slip surface on the bottom of the base. Weighing approximately 800g, it is as heavy as three apples, so it is useful to prevent the Laughing Onigawara from slipping and falling. The non-slip surface can be removed when hanging on the wall, and it is nice to see that careful consideration has been given to ease of use.
