Bicycle Maneki Neko
Xu Yu Juan
There are many symbols that one could mention when talking about Japanese culture. Cherry blossoms, kimonos, tea ceremonies -- they all have a very deep meaning behind them. However, the one that is the luckiest and happiest must be the Maneki Neko (the Japanese Lucky Cat).
Maneki Neko is a traditional cat-shaped decoration, which has been held in high esteem, especially in the Edo period more than 400 years ago. This is my first deck of cards and therefore I chose this lucky charm as the theme in the hope of portraying our never-ending pursuit of happiness. Printed by The United States Playing Card Company.
