Maneki neko
Maneki neko is found in restaurants and shops in Japan and is meant to bring good luck to its owner. Maneki neko means "Lucky cat" or "Welcome cat". His arm is raised and his hand is beckoning. In Japan, the position of the hand when gesturing "Come here" is opposite the one we use in the US. Won't you come to tea?
