Pair of Vintage Chinese or Japanese Carved Wood Shishi Lions Foo Dogs

This pair of wood carved foo dogs or Shishi Lions serves also as two small boxes. Each one consists of two parts with a hollow inside to hide a key or a small treasure. The pieces are lacquered in traditional Asian colors of red and gold accents can still be seen.

The condition is very good, there is one small wooden peg missing that holds the top and bottom together and one piece has a split in the wood as shown. It does not interfere with the functionality.

Measurements are: 4 1/4" by 8 1/2" and 4 1/4 tall.
