Acquiring this piece involved two days of haggling with an ojisan (grandfather) at Shitennoji market. Even after it was wrapped, he tried to keep the base!
The totem Hihi is a Baboo-like creature in Japanese folklore, it represents the wild and untamed forces of nature.
This stunning and evocative piece certainly catches the eye, and the story seems to suggest this one is for a late legend who never backed down!
We recommend ashes are placed in a sealed airtight bag inside a woven bag, with the lid resting on top.
Always handle with care and keep upright when ashes are inside.
