Each monkey embodies a timeless moral teaching: see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil (見ざる・聞かざる・言わざる).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandcrafted in a rustic, folk-art style, these omiyage figures are made with a warm, earthy finish that gives them a wonderfully aged and tactile character. Their rounded forms and expressive faces capture a sense of gentle humor and simplicity, while the subtle hand-painted accents—such as the soft pink details on the eyes and hands—bring each figure to life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs traditional souvenir crafts, pieces like these were often purchased by visitors to Nikkō as protective charms and reminders of virtuous living. The trio also carries a layer of wordplay, as “zaru” (猿, monkey) echoes the negative verb ending “-zaru” in classical Japanese, reinforcing their moral message.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompact and full of personality, this set makes a delightful decorative accent or a meaningful collectible, embodying both the spiritual symbolism and the approachable warmth of Japanese folk craftsmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: 2 x 2 x 3cm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maison Kyo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57049270190411,"sku":"FT430","price":7.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/9746\/7723\/files\/temple_28ff2e6a-c169-40d9-9182-8ebff894f2b2.jpg?v=1776360076","url":"https:\/\/maisonkyo.be\/es\/products\/ft430-the-three-wise-monkeys-nikko-folk-craft-%e4%b8%89%e7%8c%bf","provider":"Maison Kyo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
