Description Rare Signed Antique
Chinese Foo Dog
Guardian Lion
Carved Statue
This antique carved statue was recently acquired at an estate sale of a longtime collector of Chinese Art. It is extremely appealing, desirable, & highly collectible. Chinese guardian lions or Imperial guardian lions, traditionally known in Chinese simply as Shi, and often called \"Foo Dogs\" in the West, are a common representation of the lion in imperial China. They have traditionally stood in front of Chinese Imperial palaces, Imperial tombs, government offices, temples, and the homes of government officials and the wealthy, from the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 220), and were believed to have powerful mythic protective powers. We present this statue exactly as it was when found. No attempts to clean this antique have been made. We believe it is made of, and carved from a solid block of resin. It stands approximately 7.5\" tall. This will make a great addition to any collection.
