Product description

A lion ring made with an original motif of a lion, which is a guardian animal. There are split chrysanthemums on both sides and a sun crest on the forehead.

One theory holds that the lion, which is the root of Japan's guardian dog, Okinawa Shisa, originated from the lion statue culture of the ancient Orient, which traveled along the Silk Road through India and China, and was brought to Japan along with Buddhism during the Asuka period.

It was created with the hope that it would serve as a talisman to exorcise evil spirits and protect yourself.

The meaning behind the lion

"Peace of mind" "Strength of mind" "Openness of mind"

"The power to create the environment as you want"

“The power to protect the good” “The power to annihilate the evil”
