About the Item
Vintage Asian Iron Guardian Lions Pair – Curly-Haired Fu Dog Statues for Protection & Prosperity
Protect your home or collection with this Vintage Pair of Asian Iron Guardian Lions, also known as Fu Dogs. Expertly cast in iron, each lion features intricate curly-haired detailing, a hallmark of traditional protective statues placed at the entrances of temples, palaces, and homes to ward off evil and attract peace, strength, and good fortune.
These statues, rich with symbolic meaning, represent yin and yang—typically with the male lion resting his paw on a ball (symbol of power) and the female protecting a cub (symbol of nurturing). Their solid iron construction and aged patina add to their vintage appeal, making them ideal for display in gardens, doorways, altars, or as statement décor pieces.
