Many of our cool tea pets and decorations are designed from the Chinese legendary divine beast characters. Pixiu, Qilin, Suanxi…… If you’ve always been curious about Chinese culture and mythology, then you’ve probably heard of these names. So who are they? What do they look like? What are their meanings? In this post, we will introduce there majestic figures and tell the story behind our tea pets and ornaments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pixiu – \u8c94\u8c85<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Pixiu is a auspicious, winged creature, written about in Chinese ancient mythology. Its legend has been passed down through 2,000 years of Chinese lore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has the head of a Chinese dragon, the body of a lion, and historically had one horn (for males) or two horns (for females) on its head. In modern times, the legendary creature’s historical appearance has been lost somewhat, and is now more often depicted with only one horn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Pixiu is often confused with the Qilin, but can be easily distinguished by its feathered wings allowing it to fly between heaven and earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Pixiu\"
Pixiu – Ancient Creature That Bring Wealth And Fortune!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The myth depicts Pixiu as the most well-behaved youngest son of the Dragon King, spoiled by his parents. One day, Pixiu was playing on the Dragon King’s desk and happened to break the seal representing the power of the Dragon King. The Dragon King was very mad and transformed Pixiu into an animal with magic. Then he sealed his rectum and declared that from then on, Pixiu could only eat gold, silver and jewels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thus, in Chinese culture, it is believed that Pixiu has the ability to attract wealth from all directions. Today, Pixiu is a popular design on decorative items, and is easily seen in exterior and interior designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Due to our love for Pixiu, We have designed a cute version of Pixiu tea pet, to bring fun to your tea table, and bless you with the good meanings.<\/p>\n\n\n
