This petite ceramic figurine depicts the auspicious qilin, a mythical Chinese creature thought to bring luck and protection. Qilin are often depicted with lion-like features, though with the antlers of a dragon, hooves of a deer, and feathery, fin-like appendages. Divine and peaceful creatures, qilin are believed to be benevolent protectors of those with good intentions. We love this petite blue-and-white glazed qilin as a tabletop guardian of the home.
