    Description

    One of a new bookend pair from The Met's collection of reproductions from its galleries.  The original in the Metropolitan was created in the fifth century (Six Dynasties period, 220-589)
    Chinese Guardians are considered powerful protectors that can keep away evil spirits and safeguard life and wealth. Perfect for the new year. Feng shui provides that they may be placed in auspicious positions to harness their beneficial powers.
    Beautifully cast with great detail.  It is roughly 10” tall and the oval base is approximately 8.5” around.
    You are bidding on a single Guardian.  The pair was quite large so I am selling one.
    I will ship via FedEx Ground since USPS is a mess these days.
    I am describing it as "used" because it is unboxed but it is unused and in new condition.
