This coordinated porcelain Foo Dog pair features seated guardian-lion figures in a glossy white finish. Sculpted faces, curled manes, defined paws, and tall rectangular pedestal bases give the pair a crisp, architectural presence, while subtle dark details accent the open mouths and base openings. Display them facing one another for a balanced arrangement, or place one at each end of a console, mantel, bookcase, or substantial shelf. Three size options make it easy to select the right scale: Small measures 3.5W × 2.5D × 11H inches; Medium measures 5W × 3.5D × 13H inches; and Large measures 6W × 4.5D × 15H inches. Their monochromatic palette coordinates readily with colorful collections, dark wood furnishings, and other blue-and-white or neutral decorative pieces.

Behind the form

It begins in the hands.

Before a piece is painted, its shape gives it character: the shoulder of a jar, the edge of a planter, the balance of a vase. The porcelain traditions behind our collection bring together forming, hand-painted detail, glazing, and firing.

A closer look

Notice how the painted line follows the form, and how the glaze catches the light.

At home with porcelain

A place for the details to live.

We like porcelain best when it feels part of everyday life, not set apart from it. A lamp can warm a reading corner; a jar can hold its own on a console. Blue-and-white pattern feels especially at ease beside wood, linen, and a little open space.

A room note

Give a favorite piece some breathing room, then let its color echo somewhere else nearby.
