They are in a gorgeous ceramic with intricate designs around the base. The male, on the right, holds the sphere, which represents the earth; the female, on the left, holds the cub. Foo dogs are symbolic, protective statues, and they are designed in pairs — one is female, the other is male. The female represents yin, and symbolically protects the people dwelling inside the home, while the male statue, representing yang, protects the structure itself. These measure 4"w, 3"d, 13" high.
