What is "Shi-sa" ...

The "Shi-sa-" are traditional Okinawan guardian figures often found in pairs, positioned at the entrances of homes, businesses, and other buildings. These lion-like creatures are rooted in Chinese and Southeast Asian mythology but have become an iconic symbol of Okinawan culture. Shisa statues typically come in two forms: one with its mouth open, symbolising the dispelling of evil spirits, and the other with its mouth closed, representing the keeping in of good spirits. They are usually made of ceramic or stone and can be highly decorative, with various colours and styles. The belief is that Shisa protects against negative influences and brings good fortune. They are popular in Okinawa and have gained recognition across Japan and internationally due to their unique appearance and cultural significance.
