About Chinese Zodiac Figurines
The Chinese zodiac is a repeating 12-year cycle, with each year represented by an animal: Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig. This system has been used in Chinese culture for over 2,000 years to mark years, assign personality traits, and determine astrological compatibility. Each zodiac animal carries specific symbolic attributes — the Dragon represents power and good fortune, the Horse symbolizes freedom and energy, and the Rabbit signifies gentleness and longevity. Hand-painted Chinese zodiac figurines bring these traditional symbols into decorative art, crafted from metal alloy, decorated with colored enamel, and adorned with Austrian and Swarovski crystals. Most designs are plated in 24K gold or 925 sterling silver. They make meaningful gifts tied to a recipient's birth year.
