The richness of Chinese art and culture brought to you by {name}


Alexandra Xu

This is a beast head carved from yellow agate. This image is usually used as a door god in China. It is a symbol of protecting a family, protecting wealth and safety. It is very suitable for hanging in the car or playing with in the hand. It can effectively protect safety and bring spiritual gains. Frequent playing helps to enhance strength. Agate has the power to communicate between heaven and earth. The traditional Chinese pure hand-carving craftsmanship is more convinced of this and condenses it in the carving process.
This item was carved by our family and has been passed down to this day and has been passed down from family to family. If you take a picture of it, we will deliver it carefully and pack it well.
