Its compact, rounded shape and slightly humorous expression give it a wonderful folk-art personality, while the natural fibre cord at the back completes its rustic handmade appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dragon is one of the twelve animals of the Japanese zodiac and is traditionally associated with strength, vitality, good fortune, ambition, and success. As the only mythical creature in the zodiac, it has long been regarded as especially powerful and auspicious.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNogomi dolls were historically created during periods of hardship, particularly around the late wartime and postwar years, when everyday life in Japan was marked by uncertainty and scarcity. Crafted from humble materials yet filled with tenderness, these small figures offered emotional comfort, hope, and moments of quiet joy within ordinary homes. Their innocent expressions and uncomplicated forms embody the resilience and gentle optimism of everyday people.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a dorei (土鈴), this piece also belongs to Japan’s long tradition of small earthenware bells, often made as regional souvenirs, seasonal charms, and good-luck objects. The gentle sound of the clay pellet inside adds another layer of charm to its sculptural form.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: 5 x 4 x 5cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maison Kyo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58255965389131,"sku":"CB313","price":11.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/9746\/7723\/files\/Cover_9257d574-44cd-4c33-94df-9a80228c3a9d.jpg?v=1787735648","url":"https:\/\/fr.maisonkyo.be\/products\/cb313-dorei-clay-bell-of-dragon-nogomi-ningyo-%e3%81%ae%e3%81%94%e3%81%bf%e4%ba%ba%e5%bd%a2","provider":"Maison Kyo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
