Rich in character, these traditional guardian figures embody the timeless appeal of Chinoiserie design while offering the relaxed patina that designers seek for layered interiors and gardens.

Equally at home flanking an entry, resting atop stone gateposts, or adding sculptural interest to a bookshelf or console, these substantial figures bring an effortless sense of history to both traditional and contemporary spaces. Their naturally distressed finish pairs beautifully with English country house, Palm Beach, and Hollywood Regency interiors.
