Little Shigaraki Tanuki Paper Toy - by Kleber Moraes

 Shigaraki Tanuki Statues

This beautiful paper toy representing a Tanuki was created by Brazilian designer Kleber Moraes. Tanuki statues produced according to the "Shigaraki ware" pottery style of Shigaraki City, Shiga Prefecture, are one of Japan's most well-known lucky charms. Believed to be bringers of commercial prosperity, they are often placed outside the entrance to shops. The standard tanuki has a good- natured face and a chubby, round body. He wears a braided hat and stands with his head slightly tilted, holding a traditional Japanese tokkuri (sake flask) and a promissory note (an unpaid bill) in his hands. Shigaraki ware tanuki are said to be the bearers of eight different positive traits. The tanuki's hat symbolizes protection from the elements, caution and awareness; the eyes represent looking at things with adequate attention and care; the face features a friendly, sincere smile; the belly symbolizes bold decisiveness; the tokkuri represents personal grace; the promissory note, trust; the money bag, economic fortune; and the tail suggests that true fortune comes from standing firmly and proudly. Also, the staff that a tanuki holds symbolizes the ability to keep from falling. - Canon

The Real Tanuki

Este belo paper toy representado um Tanuki foi crado pelo designer brasileiro Kleber Moraes. As estátuas Tanuki são produzidos de acordo com o "Shigaraki ware", um estilo de cerâmica da Cidade de Shigaraki, província de Shiga, são um dos mais conhecidos amuletos da sorte do Japão. Acredita-se que eles possam trazer prosperidade financeira, por isso eles são muitas vezes colocados na entrada de lojas. O tanuki padrão tem uma cara bem-humorada e um corpo gordinho. Ele usa um chapéu de bambú trançado e está com a cabeça ligeiramente inclinada, segurando uma garrafa de tokkuri (um tradicional saquê) e uma nota promissória em suas mãos. Os Tanukis são considerados portadores de oito diferentes traços positivos: o chapéu simboliza a proteção dos elementos, cautela e consciência. Os olhos representam atenção às coisas e cuidado. O rosto apresenta um sorriso amigável, sincero. A barriga simboliza determinação. A grrafa de tokkuri representa graça pessoal. A nota promissória é confiança e o saco de dinheiro representa prosperidade econômica. A cauda sugere que verdadeira prosperidade tem que ser firme. Além disso, no Japão, um tanuki simboliza a habilidade de não cair, de se manter em pé, apesar das adversidades. - Canon

About Toys In The Attic by Papermau:

Toys in the Attic is the third album by American rock band Aerosmith, released in April 1975. Is also a name of a 1963`s drama movie with Dean Martin and Geraldine Page. Now, because this is a really nice name, this will be the name of a new session of Papermau`s blog. In this session I will share old original and exclusive paper models posted more than a year here in the blog. It's a way of not letting these models get lost among over four thousand posts in two years of existence of the blog.

Toys in the Attic (Brinquedos no Sotão) é o nome do terceiro album da banda norte-americana de rock Aerosmith, lançado em 1975. É também o nome de um drama para o cinema de 1963 chamado aqui no Brasil de Na Voragem das Paixões, que contava no elenco com Dean Martin (o parceiro do Rat Pack e de Jerry Lewis) e Geraldine Page. Agora, porque eu acho esse um título muito legal, Toys in the Attic será o nome de uma nova sessão do blog Papermau. Nesta sessão eu publicarei antigos modelos de papel originais e exclusivos postados há um ano ou mais. Esta é a maneira que encontrei para que estes modelos não fiquem perdidos e esquecidos entre mais de quatro mil postagens feitas em dois anos de existência do blog.
