Pair of Chinese Fo lions, also called "Fo dogs" or "imperial guardian lions." Ancestral symbols of protection and prosperity, these majestic sculptures embody strength, courage, and harmony.
Each lion is finely carved from lacquered wood in a traditional Asian style, showcasing exquisite craftsmanship. The meticulous details, deep patina, and vibrant red accents give these pieces a unique presence, steeped in character and history.
Traditional symbolism:
Male lion: Recognizable by the sphere under his paw, he represents power and protection of the domain.
Female lion: Resting her paw on a lion cub, she symbolizes the guardianship of the home and the care of her loved ones.
More than just a decorative object, each lion carries meaning: they are traditionally placed at the entrance to homes to ward off negative energy and invite good luck and serenity.
