The warm reddish clay surface and simple pierced base opening emphasize its handmade folk character. A braided natural fiber cord is threaded through the top for hanging, and inside, a small clay pellet produces a gentle, earthy tone when shaken.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bell originates from Hachiman-sha Shrine 熱池八幡社 in Nishio City, Aichi Prefecture. It is regarded as a protective bell believed to ward off lightning strikes and illness (雷除・悪病除). The tradition is connected to a legend involving a sacred radish preserved at the shrine. It became symbolic of divine protection, and over time it was crafted into clay bells so that worshippers could carry home the shrine’s blessing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe name “てんてこ鈴” reflects both the playful sound of the bell and its folk origins, embodying the charm of regional shrine crafts. Simple in form yet rich in meaning, this dorei represents the blending of agricultural symbolism, Shinto belief, and local tradition—transforming the humble daikon into a talisman of protection and well-being.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: 3.5 x 3.5 x 8cm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maison Kyo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56553426714955,"sku":"CB205","price":20.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/9746\/7723\/files\/temple_54514026-34ec-4d57-b722-7257c0118435.jpg?v=1771356990","url":"https:\/\/maisonkyo.be\/products\/cb205-dorei-clay-bell-from-hachiman-sha-shrine-%e5%85%ab%e5%b9%a1%e7%a4%be","provider":"Maison Kyo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
