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.

“PAGODA RED was extremely supportive in helping to pull accessory options together for the Lake Forest Showhouse. After providing them with details and our vision on how we were looking to finish our space, Laurene helped curate options that made it easy for us to edit and finalize. It's also no surprise that the unique pieces we used in our showhouse space were some of the first to sell.”
