Item description - YO07010236 Yebisu Ishibumi, Japanese Carved Memorial Stone - Memorial stones with carved text known as Ishibumi (碑) can be found all over Japan. The texts have a range of topics, for example the location that the stone is a part of. The primary function of Ishibumi is to transfer knowledge to future generations.

This particular Ishibumi features a beautiful carving of Yebisu (恵比須), also known as Ebisu, who is the Japanese god of fishermen, luck, and labourers. Yebisu is one of the Seven Lucky Gods, in Japan known as Shichi Fukujin (七福神). He is characterized by his friendly appearance, high cap, and fishery symbolism. Yebisu is very well known and loved throughout Japan, and is also the symbol of a prominent beer brand which was named after him as well. It is believed that having a statue of Yebisu in the house or garden will have a positive effect on the future.

Everyone who ever visited Japan is familiar with the carved text on this Ishidōhyō, which reads Irasshaimase (いらっしゃいませ). This phrase is always said when welcoming someone to a store or restaurant for example. It roughly translates to: I humbly ask you to exist (in my presence). Nevertheless it can culturally better be translated as: Welcome!.
