The Shisa is said to have been introduced into Okinawa through Egypt and China in about 14-15 centuries, I am told that the Egyptian Sphinx came across the Silk Road at the source. The Shisa which I existed as a talisman against evil and a guardian angel in Okinawa, and spread out to the general people before long When, based on feng shui thought, the direction of the Shisa can face the direction of 午 (the south) When, for the prevention of the fire, I send you to the direction of the northeast (the northeast) I am said to become the prevention of drowning to protect a house from a typhoon.
The Shisa of the inspiration and expiration, Female the left male an original center of the forehead or the right (a mouth opens) (a mouth is closed). I take in happy (fortune) from a male mouth, It is said that the female which a mouth closes does not miss happiness.

I have feelings toward a thing and a hue I examine raw materials of Okinawa closely out of the feeling, and to give soil taste peculiar to a studio. It is the golden coloring that there is a very solid feeling, and is elegant. It is manual labor very minute in detail.
Of course this soil taste, hue can make it only in a studio of this place in Okinawa. I produce it by manual labor to one one of the coats of hair. Even a small Shisa needs one month for production until fried rise for one week. I do the handwork closely and am daring and am the Shisa which seems to begin to work at any moment. The sharp look to threaten wicked を naturally of the coat of hair, good solid-looking flesh.
The Shisa to produce of our studio burns at temperature of approximately 1,250 degrees by a ceramic art kiln. It is a Shisa of traditional ceramic ware giving a hue by power of the fire of the kiln. Another thing, a color are removed with the Shisa painting a color really, and there cannot be the discoloring thing. Please think that you made a clear distinction from those Shisas.
I am worried about the price of the Shisa.
The Shisa introducing in our studio is particular from selection of raw materials, Even a small Shisa begins with the making of soil, and natural drying, the cleaning of the Shisa, inspection change color for making earthenware for one week and need kiln firing by completion (the number of times to bake by a kiln by a Shisa is replaced.) for three months. I need the above-mentioned days about the slightly bigger Shisa for half a year. For work to put one pair of Shisa under of all do not compromise.
Is the look of the Shisa important?
A fearful face, a pretty face, a Shisa have the structure of various faces, but the powerful expression that wear well even if have have a long it, and have that gentleness is seen inside features the Shisa of our studio; is long by all means, and, please have.
