Design Story

The tiger represents strength and beauty, and has always been regarded with awe by all peoples. In Chinese tradition, the tiger symbolizes earth and people, as opposed to the dragon that symbolizes the emperor and water. It also has a meaning of protection, and it´s not hard to find stone and painted tigers near many houses front doors because, as a matter of fact, it is told that tigers can keep evil spirits away.
