These are the most unique pair of foo dogs I have yet to come across! Foo dogs, or temple lions, were used in ancient Chinese culture to ward off evil spirits. There are typically two foo dogs with one representing the male energy with a ball underneath his paw and one representing the female energy with a small cub underneath her paw. This pair is so colorful and fantastic with its hand painted accents. I absolutely adore the "whiskers" that flow from each foo's mouth. These would look great in your home or would make for a great gift!

Condition: Excellent with the exception of two small cracks on one foo dog where the ear and back foot were broken. Both have been excellently repaired (see photos 4 and 5) and the foot crack can't even really be seen when looking at the foo dog straight on. The foo dog on the left has had some of its back toes worn down (see photo 3) due to the age of the foo dogs but is also barely noticeable.
