History & description
Museum Collection _ Not For Sale

This magnificent incense burner is a true work of art, featuring intricate carvings of the legendary Foo Dogs, with lotus petals patterns on the surface adding an extra layer of depth and meaning to the piece. The majestic creature sits atop the lid, a symbol of protection and guardianship, as its fierce and noble gaze keeps watch over the space below. On either side of the base, Foo Dog heads are carved in intricate detail, with sharp fangs and fierce expressions that embody their powerful spirit. The elegant curves and rich tones of the burner make it a striking addition to any space, while the protective symbolism of the Foo Dogs and the spiritual resonance of the lotus petals offer a sense of security, strength, and inner peace. This incense burner is a powerful symbol of protection, courage, and spiritual awakening, a reminder to harness our own inner strength and resilience on the path to enlightenment.
