Vintage Japanese Wooden Decorative Plaque
This vintage Japanese wooden decorative ema plaque features a picture of seven gods in a treasure ship. Japanese lucky bird cranes are flying over the ship. There is a red stamp on the back. It has a purple braided cord.
Ema is a small wooden plaque used at Shinto shrines, and sometimes Buddhist temples, that worshipers can write their wishes, hopes, and dreams on. Once written, it is hung on a special wooden stand or tree where the kami (spirits or gods) are thought to receive them.
