Chinese Pair of Carved Spinach Jade Foo Lions

This charming pair of Chinese Foo Lions is hand-carved from dark spinach jade, the richly mottled stone lending wonderful depth to their sculptural forms. The pair is carved in complementary poses, each lion with elaborate collars and tassels accenting their chests. Viewed from every angle, the dark jade reveals subtle variations of deep green throughout, bringing added dimension to the carving.

A decorative and substantial pair, these traditional guardian figures make an impressive display together.
