A figurine of Daikokuten crafted by Hideyama 秀山, depicted with ride on a bale of rice.
This piece dates back to the Meiji or Taisho period, approximately 100-150 years ago.
It's a large, impressive piece, nearly 60 centimeters tall.

"Daikokuten" is a deity associated with bountiful harvests and business prosperity in Japan.

Daikokuten is an important deity in Japanese Buddhism and folk beliefs, and is one of the Seven Lucky Gods. Daikokuten symbolizes wealth, prosperity in business, and agricultural abundance, garnering significant reverence.

He is characterized by his broad smile and flat cap. 
Typically depicted riding on a bale of rice, Daikokuten wears a hood and carries a large bag representing treasures, as well as a magical mallet from which wealth flows. In his left hand, he holds a treasure tower (hōtō) or a pilgrim's staff (shakujo), while in his right hand, he wields a scepter (shaku) believed to fulfill wishes. Known as a guardian deity in Buddhism, Daikokuten is also venerated as a protector of business prosperity in Japanese folklore.

Daikokuten is one of the Seven Lucky Gods and is regarded as the deity of food.
Daikokuten is a syncretic deity that combines elements of the Hindu god Shiva, known as Mahakala, with indigenous Japanese beliefs, thus considered a unique Japanese deity.
Depicted sitting atop a bale of rice, wearing a hood, holding a hammer, and carrying a large bag over his shoulder, Daikokuten is characterized by his smiling face and elongated earlobes.
Widely believed to bring blessings of wealth, prosperity, bountiful harvests, career success, and good fortune in matchmaking, Daikokuten is often worshipped alongside Ebisu, forming a pair of deities revered for agriculture and fishing.

"Shichifukujin 七福神（The Seven Lucky Gods）" refer to the seven deities: Ebisu恵比寿, Daikokuten大黒天, Bishamonten毘沙門天, Benzaiten弁財天, Hotei布袋, Fukurokuju福禄寿, and Jurojin寿老人.
These deities symbolize sacred powers such as luck, prosperity, and longevity in the traditional beliefs of Japan.
