The crafter describes this work by stating the following: " Shachihoko is an imaginary creature with the head of a dragon and the body of a fish. There is a legend that when building or house are on fire, Shachihoko Spews out the water and puts the fire out. Following the legend, Shachihoko has been put on a roof as a gurdian god. It's characteristic of Shachihoko that he puts his tail up. But when I see him, I feel that he needs a rest because the pose must be hard for him to keep. Perhaps, he says "I'm so tired... I want to stretch and take a rest...". That's the reason why I made this work. Let's loosen up his body and let him rest . " Crafted of Maple, Keyaki, (Zelcova), Wendge and Magnolia and Cherry.
