A fine antique Chinese porcelain vase cover decorated in underglaze blue & white, featuring scrolling lotus

The Foo Lion (or guardian lion) symbolizes protection, strength, and prosperity. Such covers were often
paired with vases or jars, and are today collected as stand-alone decorative objects and study pieces of the
Late Qing export tradition.
