NIO GUARDIAN SLAB RELIEF #502 – Handmade Clay Art [GREY] 10x10cm

Description

LORE:

“His scowl is not one of malice, but of a fierce protection that keeps the shadows at bay. Behind his furrowed brow lies a strength that does not waver, standing as a gatekeeper for the sacred and the pure.”

The Nio are wrathful-looking guardians often found at the entrance of Buddhist temples to ward off evil spirits and protect the values of the faith. This relief captures the muscular tension and intense expression of a guardian, with swirling energy patterns framing his form to represent the divine power he wields in his eternal vigil.
