About the Item
Vintage Chinese Wood Carving Lions Sculptures – Guardian Fu Lion Pair in Traditional Style
This Vintage Chinese Wood Carving Lions Sculptures Pair showcases the iconic Fu Lions (also known as Foo Dogs or Imperial Guardian Lions), hand-carved from solid wood with fine attention to detail. Representing protection, power, and prosperity, these majestic lions were traditionally placed at entrances to ward off evil and safeguard the home or temple.
Each lion features classic stylistic elements—flowing manes, expressive faces, and powerful stances—reflecting traditional Chinese symbolism and artisan skill. Whether displayed indoors or as part of a feng shui arrangement, this matching pair adds both cultural depth and decorative strength to any space.
Ideal for collectors of Chinese antiques, admirers of mythical guardian figures, or as a symbolic gift promoting safety and fortune.

Great Wood Carving Lion Figurine / 1868-1920 / Rare Item
Located in Sammu-shi, Chiba
This looks like an old copperware, but it is a wood carving work.
It is glossy because it is finished with black lacquer.
It is a very delicate and beautiful sculpture.
The expression of the lion is cool.
Also, the sculpture on the tail is wonderful.
It is thought that it was carved on wood such as Japanese cypress.
The name of the engraver is also engraved.
The name "Kichitaro" is engraved.
I don't know the details of this person.
There are also small cracks and defects.
There is a loss in the lower part of his right ear and part of his tail.
And there are lacquer cracks and wood cracks.
This is an old one, so there is something like this.
Also, in the case of Japanese and Chinese lions, a ball is attached to the left hand, but this is missing.
However, it is a work that is quite impressive.
It is a rare item...

In the Han dynasty, “bixie” were commonly represented as winged, four-legged beasts, a form that was probably transmitted from Western Asia.
