9 Hand-crafted Iron Wood Japanese Kirin / Qilin Carving Sculpture 4 Home Decor
9 TALL HAND-CRAFTED JAPANESE KIRIN / QILIN SCULPTURE. Gorgeously Propitious For a Collectible, Or... Wouldn't It Be Perfect For Home Decor. Meticulously Hand-Crafted By Thai Master Artists On The Burma Border. SIZE: 9 TALL WEIGHT: 1,063 Grams. Legend Of The Sacred Kirin. None; based on the Chinese name for the same creature H.
Areas ruled by a wise and benevolent leader D. Purely vegetarian; never harms another creature. One of the rarest, most awesome, and most powerful creatures ever known in East Asia is the unicorn-like kirin.
It is a regal animal, holy and highly revered, and often considered a god in its own right. The kirin is a chimerical beast resembling a deer with scales like a dragon's covering its body. It has a tail like an ox's and a flowing mane. Its body and mane are covered in brilliant holy fire.
Its face is the picture of utter serenity. A gentle animal, the kirin never eats the flesh of other beings, and it takes great care never to tread on any living thing, even lowly insects. When it walks, it does so without trampling a single blade of grass. Its beauty is only surpassed by its rarity; kirin only appear during periods of world peace, during the reigns of noble and enlightened rulers, in lands owned by wise and benevolent people, or as heralds of a golden age. Kirin never harm good and pure souls, but they are swift and fierce to attack if threatened, breathing holy fire from their mouths.
Because kirin are beasts of purity and goodness, they have been used in carvings and paintings as symbols of these virtues since early times. They are also seen as symbols of justice and wisdom.
Because of their holiness, images of kirin frequently adorn temples and shrines. They are omens of great luck and fortune, and the appearance of a kirin is often believed to be a sign of the arrival of a great leader or a wise man. Kirin were originally introduced to Japan via Chinese myths and legend, where they are known as qilin. Over time, the Chinese and Japanese version diverged into slightly different creatures. In Japan, the kirin is considered to be the most powerful and sacred beast of all, surpassing the ho-o and tatsu in power.
The giraffe is also called Kirin in Japanese; named for te traits it shares with the holy Kirin. Its long legs, scale-like pattern, gentle nature, and the knobs on its head must have reminded the first Japanese to see a giraffe of this most sacred of beasts.
