Powerful muscles appear to ripple under its pelt, a testament to Xu Xiao Yong’s prowess in sculpture subtly enhanced by casting in fine pewter. As it steps off its bronze-hued composite resin base, a rumbling growl is almost palpable.Whilst undeniably fearsome, the tiger manifests powerful yin characteristics; care, prudence and intuition, traits especially conducive to commerce. As guardian, it is symbolic of autumn, dusk, and the element of metal.132 years of CraftsmanshipSince 1885, our designers and craftsmen have expressed their love and understanding of the material by continuously pushing the envelope in pewter design while staying true to our heritage of craftsmanship.
