Description

Protect your home in style with this stunning pair of vintage Chinese Foo Dog (Imperial Guardian Lion) statues. These figures are rendered in the traditional Sancai (three-color) glaze style, featuring a beautiful palette of emerald green, amber yellow, and deep cobalt blue.

The pair represents the classic yin-yang balance:

• The Male: Shown with his paw atop an embroidered ball (the flower of life), representing supremacy over the world and protection of the structure.
• The Female: Shown with a cub beneath her paw, symbolizing the cycle of life and protection of the dwellers within.

Each statue sits atop an ornate, integrated pedestal base with traditional relief patterns. The expressive faces, detailed manes, and vibrant glazes make these a sophisticated addition to a mantel, entryway, or bookshelf for collectors of Asian art and Chinoiserie decor.
