Spring Couplets & Square Scrolls Town House Fuhu (Fuhu Guardian Tiger) Since ancient times, the fierce-looking "tiger" has been revered in folk beliefs as a symbol of warding off evil and pacifying malevolent forces. Homes may feature tiger paintings or three-dimensional tiger deity/Lord Tiger statues to achieve the effect of safeguarding the household. Tiger motifs are also common on children's clothing, such as tiger-head hats, tiger-head shoes, and tiger-head bibs. Folk belief holds that these protect children's heads and feet, shielding them from illness. The character "王" (King) on a tiger's forehead symbolizes royalty and leadership, carrying auspicious wishes for children to become distinguished leaders and outstanding individuals in the future. { Tiger Imagery } As early as the Shang and Zhou dynasties, records exist of painting tigers on doors and using them as door gods. As the king of beasts, the tiger is a creature of great yang energy, the leader of all beasts, capable of seizing prey, defeating enemies, and devouring ghosts and spirits. Ancient people believed that tigers could devour evil spirits, repel illness, protect homes, and bring wealth and good fortune. Thus, every household would hang tiger imagery during the Spring Festival to ward off evil and ensure peaceful homes, healthy families, and a prosperous year. (From "Fengsu Tongyi · Shidian") The origin of the tiger door god is thus very ancient, even predating Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong. Furthermore, there is a custom of hanging tiger imagery during the Dragon Boat Festival. May is known as the "month of illness," and while the Dragon Boat Festival marks the peak of yang energy, it is also the turning point from yang to yin. Traditional customs dictate expelling miasma and warding off evil on this day. Therefore, people often drink realgar wine, noon water, hang mugwort and calamus, wear scented sachets, and wash their hands and faces with mugwort water to cleanse away impurities. Homes would display tiger ornaments, tiger paintings, and Zhong Kui images, and children would wear tiger-belly bibs to repel evil. A folk rhyme says: Mugwort at the door, tiger on the wall, guarding the house, repelling evil and the five poisons. Displayed during Spring Festival and hung during the Dragon Boat Festival. Such a practical and auspicious tiger image certainly warrants careful selection of exquisite quality. - - - Design: Town House Fuhu (Traditional Shandong Yangjiabu Style) Quantity: 1 piece per pack Size: 15 x 15 cm Paper: Eco-friendly Red Cardstock Weight: 240 g/m2 Heavyweight Printing: Letterpress Hot Foil Stamping Color: Matte Rose Gold Back: Blank on the back - - - Lovingly crafted by Good Day Studio Printed in Taiwan - - - About Shipping After payment, it takes 1-2 business days from stock preparation to shipping, excluding holidays.
