Description of Maneki Neko Lucky Cat - DIY Ceramic Keepsake for Painting and Adorning

Piece measures approx. 4.5" H x 2.75" W. This piece is unglazed, unpainted bisque. Great for painting with either acrylic paints or ceramic glazes. This can be glazed and fired to cone 06 or simply painted with acrylics and displayed as is. When painting, wipe first with a damp cloth and allow to dry completely. You simply can't go wrong with these awesome paint your own ceramics. Makes a great family fun project for kids and adults alike!

Charming Fortune Bringer

This lovely ceramic lucky cat is a great addition to any arts and crafts enthusiast's project repertoire. Thanks to my knowledge gained in practice, I was able to beautifully incorporate this piece into my latest creative endeavor. The vibrant colors and detailed design are stunning and definitely add a touch of whimsy to any DIY project. However, the size may be a bit small for those looking for a bigger statement piece.

Pros
  • Adorable and cute decoration for any room or space.
Cons
  • Possible cultural appropriation and misrepresentation of Japanese culture.

Really lucky charm

I ended up turning the figure into a black lucky cat. I didn't glaze, but used acrylic paint and acrylic pencils. It was easy to clean, arrived in perfect condition and got dirty easily. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a cute little figurine that can be turned into an amazing piece of art.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • old

Great little project!

I really enjoyed drawing my cat! No hard-to-reach places, nice smooth surface. The ceramic picked up the acrylic paint easily so the figurine dried quickly, but I also had a great one coat finish on everything except the gold which is very thin on any surface. I will definitely be buying more! The cat came in an envelope with a strong cardboard box enclosed. The box was sealed tightly with tape and the cat was wrapped in TWO layers of bubble wrap. Very well packed!

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
