The figure is shaped with soft, rounded contours and finished in a clean white tone, accented by warm touches of gold on the horns and tail, and a bright red cord tied across its back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt its center, a small seal mark identifies its shrine origin, grounding the piece in its spiritual context. The cow motif carries layered meaning in Japanese tradition. It is closely associated with patience, diligence, and steady progress, and in shrine contexts, cows are often regarded as messengers of the divine or symbols of wishes for health and learning. In some traditions, touching or venerating a cow figure is believed to transfer blessings or relieve ailments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a dorei, the hollow interior produces a soft, calming chime when gently moved. This sound is traditionally thought to purify the environment, dispel misfortune, and invite good fortune, making the bell both a decorative object and a protective talisman.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe piece also reflects the aesthetic of wabi-sabi—its handmade nature is visible in the slight irregularities of form, the subtle variations in paint, and the tactile quality of the clay surface. These imperfections lend warmth and authenticity, emphasizing the human touch behind its creation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: 8 x 4 x 6cm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maison Kyo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56952124604747,"sku":"CB240","price":9.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/9746\/7723\/files\/temple_9361fdb1-385c-4fae-a247-375cb81b0b56.jpg?v=1775321377","url":"https:\/\/maisonkyo.be\/products\/cb240-dorei-clay-bell-from-hachiman-shrine-%e5%85%ad%e7%94%b2%e5%85%ab%e5%b9%a1%e7%a5%9e%e7%a4%be","provider":"Maison Kyo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
