Long Life PlaqueThe original plaque was intricately hand-carved and these plaques are cast from it using a material that looks very woodish - energetically it is considered wood because the material is a combination or resin and wood. Which is good because of 'growing chi' associated with wood. Long life symbols are festooned with BATS, the famous symbol for long life. Silky red fortune knot and tassel complete the plaque and hang down at the bottom.12" round. Item #GI-PLL. |

Tibetan Magical Bronze BowlVery unusual. Each bowl is hand-cast from bronze, with a green patina with either finely etched dragons in the bottom of the large bowl, or a fish pattern in the smaller one. Known as Lung Ding, it is said that this basin is the source of all myths about the Feng Shui fountains. The basin with it's classic beauty first appears in China's Han Dynasty. The bowls are tuned similarly to singing bowls. If you pour clean water into the basin and rub the brass 'ears'- the handles with your hands, sweet tones will be heard from the basin itself and four fountains of water will leap from the surface of the water. These bowls are tuned similarly to singing bowls, and were originally used for meditation. If you haven't seen these before, it's because they are relatively rare in the United States. This is a very handsome item that of course can be used for many purposes. The bowls are authentic reproductions of a meditation water bowl that dates to the 4th century B.C. Item #GI-LBOWL. Picture.
Pour clean water into the basin and rub the brass 'ears' (handles) with your hands. Sweet tones will be heard from the basin itself and small fountains of water will spring up fro the surface of the water. |

Solid wood
Quality Auspicious Calligraphy Wall Plaque (Double Happiness, Wealth, Luck, Long Life)We have four Chinese wooden 'words' as they are translated, which are very beautifully made of dark wood. In Feng Shui, the material an item is made of is very important - I chose the element of wood because it enhances the growth factor of each 'word' carved from it, as opposed to metal calligraphy, which is by nature hard, sharp and often cutting. These are an excellent traditional gifts for occasions such as engagement, marriage, birthday - anytime you want the recipient to benefit by the growing strength of the word you have chosen to give. Hangs on wall. Measures 10" x 9". Item #GI-CWRD.
DOUBLE-HAPPINESS is a very popular gift for the newly- wed couple, or used when we want to celebrate an occasion of great joy. WEALTH, or good fortune as the Chinese put it, is used any time we want to increase and benefit our home, our work space or ourselves with prosperity. Yeaaaa! The calligraphy for LUCK actually means that 'Luck is with us now', not in a casual sense but very specifically; it empowers us with the knowledge that our luck is changing with this statement. LONG LIFE of course is a wonderful word for us personally, as well as for business. |
