Lucky Cat Lantern With a Calico Cat and a Red Sea Bream
Cats have been tied to good fortune in Japan since the Edo period. The best known is the maneki neko, the beckoning cat that sits by the register of shops and restaurants with one paw raised to call customers in. The luckiest of all is said to be the calico, white with patches of orange and black, a coat rare enough that sailors once kept such cats aboard to protect their ships.
This lucky cat lantern shows a calico of that kind, round and unbothered, dressed in a patterned kimono jacket like a shopkeeper at his door. On its head it carries a large red fish. The fish is a tai, a sea bream, and it is a lucky sign of its own: its name echoes medetai, the word for something happy and worth celebrating, which is why a whole bream is served at weddings and New Year tables. A cat and a tai together make a double wish for prosperity.
The drawing sits on the white shade of a chochin, the ribbed lantern that hangs outside Japanese shops. Here the skin is a coated fabric rather than paper, stretched over a spiral frame and closed by black caps. It resists humidity and handling, hangs by a ring at the top, and glows evenly when a small bulb or LED is placed inside.
The lucky cat lantern is the friendliest of the series, and the easiest to place. It suits a child's room, a kitchen, an entrance, a shop counter or a cafe, and it sits well beside a maneki neko figure or a Daruma. Fish restaurants and sushi bars will find it especially fitting. It is also a simple gift for a cat lover or for someone opening a business.
It comes in two sizes and folds flat for storage.

Good to know
-
Our pieces are cut to Asian sizing, which runs smaller than US sizing — so as a rule, order one size up from your usual size. The exceptions are t-shirts and hoodies, which run true to size, so take your usual size for those. Every product page has its own size chart with exact measurements taken flat, so you can compare against a piece you already own. Still caught between two sizes? Email support@japan-clothing.com and a real person will help you pick the right one.
-
Materials vary from piece to piece — some are 100% cotton, others polyester, satin-finish, or a blend, depending on the design. You'll find the exact composition in the product description above, and it's always printed on the inner label of the garment itself. When the two ever differ, trust the label.
A little care goes a long way with these pieces. To keep colors deep and fabric intact:
- Machine wash cold, 30°C / 86°F maximum — heat is what fades and shrinks
- Turn the garment inside out and wash with similar colors
- Use a gentle cycle and mild detergent; skip the fabric softener on printed or embroidered pieces
- Do not bleach
- Hang to dry in the shade — avoid the tumble dryer, which is the fastest way to ruin the fit
- Iron on low heat if needed, and always inside out over prints or embroidery
- For anything delicate or unusual, follow the inner label first
Treated right, these pieces hold their shape, color and detail wash after wash.

All prices include taxes — what you see is what you pay, with nothing added at checkout. Import duties are handled on our end, so for the vast majority of orders you won't pay a thing on delivery.

Japan Clothing is inspired by Japan, not made in Japan — and we'd rather you hear it from us. Every piece draws from Japanese culture, design and street style: the energy of Tokyo's backstreets, the calm of a Kyoto workshop, the prints of vintage textiles, the cut of modern streetwear. We translate that inspiration into clothes built for daily wear, anywhere in the world.
The pieces themselves are produced by manufacturing partners in Asia. The exact composition of each one is listed on its product page and printed on the inner label — no guesswork, no fine print.
We don't sell you an origin. We share a spirit.

- Quality guaranteed. If a piece arrives damaged, defective or not as described, we'll replace it or refund you in full.

- Privacy respected. Your personal data stays with us. We never sell, share or rent it — full details in our Privacy Policy.
- Real human support. Every email is answered by an actual person, usually within 24 hours.
