About the Item
This item is a giant wooden penis that was used in old Japanese houses from the late 19th century to the early 20th century (Meiji to Taisho eras). This item is very attractive as a tasteful interior that evokes the spirit of wabi-sabi, and as a collector's item.
This sculpture, created in the Tohoku region, including Iwate Prefecture, based on a folk belief wishing for the prosperity of descendants, is displayed in a high position inside the house, and over the years, it has undergone a unique and tasteful aging process. The texture of the wood, blackened with soot by the hearth, seems to reflect the Japanese aesthetic sense that deepens with the passage of time, and it is not just an object, but also reflects history and culture.
Its heavy presence blends in mysteriously with not only Japanese spaces but also modern interiors. By displaying this in your room, you will be able to make the viewer feel the simple spirituality of the Japanese people. Please try incorporating this special item, which has a deep flavor that changes over time, into your space with a wabi-sabi spirit.
This sculpture with unique beauty is a one-of-a-kind item that is just for you. Be sure to get this masterpiece that allows you to enjoy Japanese history and culture to the fullest.
Please be careful as some of the soot may come off if you wipe it with a cloth.
It can stand on its own, but it is a little wobbly, so if you want to stand it up, please attach a felt sheet or something to the bottom to stabilize it.
It is quite rare to have such a large size, so it will be impressive when displayed.

This is a stone carved in the image of an old Japanese male genitalia.
There is a possibility that it was a natural stone that had been carved by the running water of a river for a long time, but it is more likely that it was carved artificially.
In Japan, objects in the shape of male and female genitalia have been made for a long time. The materials used are stone and wood.
In the case of stone, some are made from 3,000 yen to 4,000 years ago.
At that time, it was used in ceremonies to pray for the prosperity of descendants.
In the case of this stone, it was probably dedicated to shrines and village shrines in hopes of prosperity of descendants.
This stone is believed to be from before the Edo period.
Because two types of rocks are mixed, the color contrast is beautiful.
I prepared the pedestal.
Also, there are some shallow cracks, but there is no need to worry about breaking the stone.
