Description

This is a vintage Japanese Kawara roof tile featuring Ebisu, the god of prosperity and fishermen, holding a carp. Kawara tiles have been used in Japan for centuries to protect and adorn the roofs of homes and temples, often incorporating symbols of good fortune like Ebisu.

Ebisu is one of the Seven Lucky Gods (Shichifukujin) and is particularly beloved in fishing communities. He is often depicted with a jovial expression, holding a fishing rod or a large fish, symbolizing abundance. As a deity of commerce and well-being, Ebisu also represents prosperity in business. In this tile, the inclusion of a carp—a symbol of strength and perseverance—reinforces themes of success and determination.

This beautifully crafted roof tile is not just an architectural element but a meaningful piece of cultural and spiritual significance.
