Shisa making in Miyakojima
JPY 3,000 / piece ／ About 2 hours
We prepare the molded lower body. You shape the face from clay, it is baked in the oven, and then you paint it in the colors you like. Turn your Miyakojima memories into a one-of-a-kind guardian you can take home the same day.
How is it made? →How Shisa Making Works
- 1
Shape the face
We prepare the molded lower body. You shape the face from clay. The mane and the expression are entirely up to you.
- 2
Bake in the oven
Once the face is shaped, it bakes in the oven for about 15 minutes.
- 3
Paint the colors
After baking, paint it freely. Blues like the Miyako sea and soft pastel colors both suit it beautifully.
- 4
All done
Once painted, your one-of-a-kind guardian is finished and ready to take home the same day.

FAQ
Do I need a reservation?
We recommend booking in advance. Feel free to contact us on our official LINE account or by Instagram DM. If seats are available, same-day participation may also be possible, so just ask.
Can children take part?
Yes. The lower body is ready-molded, so children can focus on shaping the face and painting. Our staff will help, so even first-timers can relax. Children aged 4 and under must be accompanied and supported by a parent or guardian for safety.
Can I take my Shisa home the same day?
Yes. After baking and painting, you can take your finished piece home the same day.
What are the price and duration?
JPY 3,000 per person, per piece (materials included), and it takes about 2 hours. All tools and materials are provided, so there is nothing to bring.
Can I take part on a rainy day?
Yes. It is an indoor experience, so rainy days are no problem. If the weather changes suddenly, feel free to get in touch.
Can I combine it with the candle experience?
You can ask to do both on the same day. Just let us know when booking that you would like the candle experience too.
