Just for a bit of background on these special auctions, as I make my pendants and figurines, to me these are more than just casts. Being hand painted, every design is a unique piece of art, and has felt like the pendant is imbued with a bit of the essence of that individual character. As I create these characters, and as I paint the ornament, the story of the character is just as important as the colors and markings, and is consciously kept in mind throughout the painting process. To push the idea further, I've decided to introduce these limited character auctions. On top of the Shisa already being limited edition, these particular paint jobs will never show up again on another Shisa ornament. You'll not only be adopting your very own mini guardian lion-dog, but you'll be able to physically hold your new character! These will be a rare treat, only once every one or two months. It is my hope that these rare beasts give people a tangible way to explore personalities and adventures, which they can share with others in the form of ornaments, stories, and art!

Character Background:
After her human companion had perished from an incurable disease, Hanae devoted her life to the battle against disease. Years ago, she found a sanctuary for the sick and readily began her study in healing, meanwhile helping to tend to the patients of the sanctuary. Surely this choice of life would be a hopeful one, but underlying the peaceful atmosphere of the sanctuary is a thread of hopelessness. Maybe her lofty ideals will be her downfall, but between her smart mind and affinity for growing medicinal plants (especially flowering plants), maybe her work will make a difference. Perhaps their bodies cannot be cured, but Hanae's warm innocence brings peace and true healing to the residents of the sanctuary. Perfection is in the eye of the beholder- will she ever find peace in her struggle for perfect health?
