Yixing White Clay Handmade Sleeping Guardian Lion Tea Pet

1. Material & Craftsmanship

Handcrafted from natural Yixing white clay, dimensions approximately 8cm (L) × 5cm (W) × 4cm (H). The material is fine and smooth, fired using traditional kiln methods to achieve a soft off-white texture. Exquisite hand-carved details include the lion's fur patterns, red-accented eyes, scale motifs, and neck collar, reflecting authentic Zisha artistry.

2. Shape Design

Inspired by traditional Chinese guardian lions: adorable sleeping posture with peacefully closed eyes; finely carved spiral mane on the head, yellow-white scale patterns on the body, red dot on the nose tip, and blue collar around the neck; naturally lying limbs with a round and cute overall shape.

3. Symbolic Meaning

In Chinese culture, the guardian lion symbolizes auspicious protection and warding off evil, while white represents purity and peace. Ideal for gifting to tea enthusiasts, friends, or business partners to convey blessings of safety and good fortune.
