About

Bright Turquoise Glaze Chinese Foo Dogs (Guardian Lions) - Set of 2

raditionally placed in pairs at temple gates, palaces, or scholar’s homes, guardian lions (shishi or foo dogs) symbolized strength, protection, and prosperity. This pair, finished in a brilliant turquoise glaze, reflects the iconic form—muscular bodies, stylized manes, and alert expressions, each seated upon a square plinth. Once guardians of sacred and domestic spaces, today they serve as striking decorative accents, bringing both cultural symbolism and vibrant color into modern interiors.
