Wishes for good fortune carved in wood
In Japan, a small object charged with a wish is placed nearby and left to quietly do its work. T-Lab adopts this tradition with its engimon made of albizia wood, starting with the daruma, then the zodiac series. For the Year of the Snake in 2025, the brand released a limited edition of snakes with gold, red, and silver patterns. Some hold themselves in pairs, mouths forming “ah” and “un” like the lion-dogs of shrines. Others raise their tails like the maneki neko, inviting luck to come in.

The daruma engimon
A round, smiling figure, available in mini and gold versions. It sits at eye level, on a desk or a shelf.

Nikoichi, two in one
The duo features two snakes adorned with gold and red ornaments, their curves forming a smile. Their mouths take the shape of "ah" and "un," like the lion-dogs of shrines.
Maneki snake, tail raised
