Handcrafted Guardian Lion Statue – Sri Lanka

Description

This handcrafted Guardian Lion statue is a striking symbol of protection, strength, and prosperity. Carefully made by skilled artisans in Sri Lanka, the piece features detailed sculpting, from the expressive face and curled mane to the decorative pedestal base inspired by traditional Asian motifs.

Often referred to as a Foo Dog or Shishi, the Guardian Lion is traditionally placed at entrances, shelves, or sacred spaces to help ward off negative energy and encourage balance and good fortune. The statue’s aged gold-tone finish gives it a timeless, elegant appearance that works beautifully as both a decorative and symbolic piece.

Each statue is individually crafted, resulting in subtle variations that make every piece unique.
