Hakata Vidro Lucky White Snake｜Gold Leaf Glass Ornament｜Symbol of Wealth, Protection & Renewal

Lucky White Snake – A Symbol of Fortune

The White Snake has long been revered in Japan as a sacred messenger of Benzaiten, goddess of fortune and wisdom. It symbolizes wealth, prosperity, and protection.

This “Lucky White Snake” transforms this sacred presence into contemporary art using Hakata Vidro, a traditional Japanese blown-glass technique.
A gold leaf sphere made from Kanazawa gold foil glows inside the clear glass as the snake gently coils around it. Its red eyes express a quiet promise to “protect your wishes.”

Perfect for an entryway, office, or living room, this piece brings a sense of purity, calm, and subtle spiritual energy to any space.
