Bronze Fu Dog Guardian Lions — Pair of Foo Dogs on Carved Pedestal in Dark Patina

A matching pair of bronze Fu Dog guardian lions, cast with a rich dark patina and mounted on carved pedestals.

One holds a sphere beneath its paw, the other a cub — the classical male and female pairing of this ancient guardian tradition, the mane rendered in tight curled locks and the face fierce with protective authority. Fu Dogs have flanked the entrances of palaces, temples and grand residences for centuries as a symbol of protection and prestige. Cast using the lost-wax method, every detail from plinth to tail is executed with precision.
