Pair of Foo Dogs Guardian Lion Statues – 10.5" High

Bring symbolism, history, and Old World Asian garden style to your home or landscape with this Pair of Foo Dogs Guardian Lion Statues. Made of durable cast stone, this matching left and right pair features the traditional seated guardian form with expressive faces, curled details, strong paws, and decorative carved styling. Although commonly called Foo Dogs or Fu Dogs, these figures are traditionally based on Chinese guardian lions rather than actual dogs. For centuries, guardian lions have been placed at entrances to temples, palaces, homes, gardens, courtyards, and important buildings as symbols of protection, strength, prosperity, and good fortune. Their powerful posture and watchful expression are meant to guard the entrance and welcome positive energy. Foo Dogs are often displayed as a pair, with one placed on each side of a doorway, gate, staircase, garden path, or entryway. The pair creates balance and symmetry while giving the space a strong protective presence. Their sculptural form works beautifully in Asian-inspired gardens, meditation spaces, courtyard entrances, patios, porches, and formal landscapes. This cast stone Foo Dog pair comes in a color choice so you can select the finish that best complements your garden or architectural setting. Because these statues ship by FedEx, they are easier to order and receive than many heavier freight-only garden pieces.
