Description

The listing, Japanese Omamori w/Ofuda (from shinto shrine) has ended.

Omamori: Omamori (御守 or お守り are Japanese amulets (charms, talismans) commonly sold at religious sites and dedicated to particular Shinto deities as well as Buddhist figures, and are said to provide various forms of luck or protection.
Ofuda:These pieces of paper have written on them usually something simple as a magical symbol or the name of a deity, but in some cases even a complete spell or a complete prayer

This is a Japanese amulet. It is an orange silk brocade drawstring pouch that is from a shinto shrine. This one has an ofuda inside. Although there are many Omarmori for many specific reasons. This one is recommended to be placed on the family alter because of the Ofuda inside. I don't know anyone who reads japanese and i don't know Japanese so I don't know what this says. However, it is considered disrespectful to look inside the pouch anyways. I have looked inside before I knew this. Pictures are of the actual pouch. However the other pictures of the Ofuda is not of the exact one you will get because it is disrespectful to peek inside the pouch. Pouch and Ofuda are in excellent condition.

The pouch and ofuda will come in a liitle box. I didn't get this at the estate sale that the omamori came from. So the two are not related. This box once held candy. Excellent/perfect condition.

I can not put a gin on this. I have no idea of its value.

Wow! This is such a neat auction. I collect Asian trinkets, mostly Japanese things. This might make an interesting addition to my collection.
