Tanuki Spirit Silver Pendant – Japanese Folklore in Sterling Silver
Celebrate whimsy, luck, and tradition with the Tanuki Spirit Silver Pendant, a handcrafted tribute to one of Japan’s most beloved folkloric creatures. This detailed pendant features a joyful Tanuki — the mythical raccoon dog — smiling warmly while holding a sake bottle, a scroll, and a walking staff, all traditional symbols of charm, wit, and wandering spirit.
Rooted in centuries of legend, the Tanuki represents mischief, transformation, and good fortune. This pendant brings those qualities to life through exquisite silverwork and rich storytelling.
Features:
- Smiling Tanuki Design: The Tanuki figure is depicted in his classic cheerful stance, with rounded features and a lighthearted expression. He holds a traditional sake flask (representing pleasure), a scroll (symbolizing wisdom or promises), and a staff (for journeying or spiritual authority).

ALL THE COLLECTIONS
FROM THE WAX PROTOTYPE TO THE METAL JEWEL
Each piece is carefully sculpted by hand in wax and cast in silver with the ancient lost wax technique.
wax prototype
metal jewel
STEP 1
Every creation begins as an idea shaped in wax.
Carved by hand, detail by detail,
this is where the creature starts to breathe—
raw, imperfect, alive.
Before metal, there's always intention.
STEP 2
Once cast, the piece reveals itself in silver.
Polishing, shaping, correcting its edges—
a process of balance between rawness and precision.
It’s not just about finishing. It’s about unlocking character.
STEP 3
No two pieces are ever the same.
Each carries its own marks, weight, and story.
What you see is not a product—it’s a relic of the process,
meant to be worn, meant to last.
