A pair of translucent celadon jade Chinese Foo Dog antique carvings. Each guardian lion-style figure is crafted from a pale green, translucent hardstone, consistent with jade. The stylized figures feature prominent manes, open mouths with bared fangs, and powerful, seated postures, consistent with East Asian decorative arts. They are individually mounted on fitted, tiered dark-stained wooden stands. One stand bears an incised character “吉” (jí), which translates to “auspicious” or “lucky.”
