What Sells On eBay: Mother of Pearl Laquerware, Vintage Vinyl Duffle Bag, Pop Swatch Watch



I always love finding vintage Pop Swatch watches http://goo.gl/k5XDqS. They're usually pretty cheap at thrift stores because the battery is dead. Easy enough to buy a cheap battery on ebay and replace.

The Chinese word for Buddha is Fu or Fo, and in turn the Chinese Guardian Lion statues similar in style as the ones pictured below came to be known as 'Dog of Fo' and only over time transitioned into what they are now generally referred to as, ' Foo Dogs' in the West or more generically, 'Chinese/Imperial Guardian Lions'. 
Chinese guardian lions or Imperial guardian lion, traditionally known in Chinese simply as Shi (Chinese: ē…; pinyin: shÄ«; literally "lion"), and often called "Foo Dogs" in the West, are a common representation of the lion in pre-modern China. Statues of guardian lions have traditionally stood in front of Chinese Imperial palaces, Imperial tombs, government offices, temples, and the homes of government officials and the wealthy, from the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 220), and were believed to have powerful mythic protective benefits. They are also used in other artistic contexts, for example on door-knockers, and in pottery. Pairs of guardian lion statues are still common decorative and symbolic elements at the entrances to restaurants, hotels, supermarkets and other structures, with one sitting on each side of the entrance, in China and in other places around the world where the Chinese people have immigrated and settled, especially in local Chinatowns.
The lions are usually depicted in pairs. When used as statuory, the pair would consist of a male resting his paw upon an embroidered ball (in imperial contexts, representing supremacy over the world) and a female restraining a playful cub that is on its back (representing nurture).[1]

The Foo Dog pair is usually shown with the male holding one paw on a sphere symbolizing the Earth, while the female holds a cub.
