Background
In Chinese folklore, the Pixiu is a winged mythical creature, often displayed in pairs at an entrance or on a desk. It is presented here as a decorative carving and a nod to that tradition.
Care: fluorite is relatively soft. Wipe with a soft, dry cloth; avoid chemicals and prolonged soaking. Avoid drops and knocks, and place carefully when displaying.
