A statue or figure of a “Tang horse” was a traditional gift for any revered male relative. In photographs of the office or work area of famous men, it’s not unusual to see a statue of a Tang horse. Available in Jade, ceramic, or cast resin, a memorable father’s day gift and an appealingly masculine decor accessory.

Xian Tomb Warrior Statue for Dad’s Dresser, Desk Top, or Credenza

Discovered in 1974, near the city of Xian in mainland China, in the tomb of the first emperor of Qin, archeologists discovered a massive army of hundreds of life size terra cotta ceramic warriors. The detail of the each is extraordinary, and now small reproductions of those warriors are crafted from both ceramic and resin castings. For the man of the house, a Xian warrior statue provides a masculine element to the art and décor of his bedroom or study. Available in either terra cotta or cast resin.

Dragon Statue for a Special Father’s Day Gift

In ancient Asia, the Dragon was a symbol of the mysterious power of Nature, and it was the exclusive right of the Emperor of Qin to use it’s image. However, statues of dragon, made from Jade, Bronze, Brass or cast resin, were thought to attract strength and health to one’s household, sleeping quarters, office, or business. We offer an attractive selection of dragon statues, uniquely attractive gifts for your dear father on his special day.

Foo Dog Book Ends for Father’s Day

Foo dogs or Fu lion statues were considered good luck for a home or business, as they were guardians of heaven in Taoist mythology.

In an office or library, a pair of carved or cast Fu dog statues are often used as unique book ends, to provide an interesting and exotic decorative appeal. We offer distinctive pairs of Foo dog book ends in carved marble, solid Jade, cast resin, and cast Shou Shan stone.
