This boys' Shinto ceremonial silk kimono displays depictions of the seven lucky gods from Japanese mythology. Notably, the amulet motifs along the kimono's bottom are unconventional for a miyamairi kimono, as this space is typically left blank or black. Measuring 32 inches (81 cm) across the sleeves and standing at 38 inches (97 cm) in height, each of the Seven Lucky Gods represents various aspects of good fortune.

Hotei, the portly, shirtless deity, symbolizes abundance and good health. Jurojin, recognizable by his long staff, embodies longevity and was introduced from Taoism. Fukurokuju, distinguished by his elongated head, represents happiness, wealth, and longevity, possessing the unique ability to revive the dead. Bishamonten serves as the god of warriors and a punisher of wrongdoers among the seven.

Benzaiten, the lone goddess, presides over knowledge, art, beauty, and music, often depicted playing the 'biwa' (Japanese lute). Daikokuten, associated with wealth, commerce, and trade, wields a magical money mallet. Ebisu, patron god of fishers and merchants, carries a fishing pole or a sea bream. Originating from Japan, Ebisu's tale narrates his birth as a "leech child" without limbs, abandoned by his divine parents, only to miraculously develop limbs by his third birthday, becoming the god Ebisu.

Among the seven gods, only Ebisu originates from Japan as a Shinto kami deity. Daikokuten, Bishamonten, and Benzaiten trace their origins to India, integrated into Japan's Buddhist pantheon. Hotei, Fukurokuju, and Jurojin have ancestral roots in China. The concept of the Seven Lucky Gods as a collective is believed to have emerged among merchants in Osaka and Kyoto during the 15th to 17th centuries.
