Description
A distinctive pair of Chinese mythological guardian statues — modelled with the dragon-scaled forms of the Qilin and Pixiu, rendered in an ivory-toned resin with hand-coloured detail.
The Qilin and Pixiu are two of the most auspicious creatures in Chinese mythology — the Qilin a symbol of good omen and prosperity, the Pixiu a powerful protector and attractor of wealth. This decorative pair captures their characteristic features: raised scale detail, flowing tails, expressive faces and sculptural bases, all finished in a warm ivory-toned resin with soft hand-coloured accents that add depth and character. The compact scale and refined finish make them well suited to display shelves, mantelpieces and curated chinoiserie groupings.
