Placement Suggestions
1. Entryway inside the door (preferred):
The Qilin's head faces outside the main door — the cloud-treading auspicious beast facing outward can block road, sharp corners, and other evils, drawing auspicious blessings into the home, protecting the home and safeguarding peace.
2. Living room bright wealth position, beside the sofa:
Absorbs wealth energy, gathers blessings, and flourishes the family, stabilizing the whole family's financial fortune, dissolving indoor unfavorable energy fields.
3. Study desk left side (Azure Dragon position) / office desktop:
Attracts benefactors, dissolves workplace ill-wishers, aids promotion and salary increase, smooth projects. Students placing it can flourish intelligence and academic achievement.
4. Shop front desk, beside the cash register:
Draws customer sources, flourishing business, wide customer flow, fewer risks.

Taboos
1. Avoid facing the bathroom or kitchen stove — foul and filthy energy clashes with the auspicious beast's blessings.
2. Avoid beams directly pressing above the ornament — suppressing auspicious fortune.
3. Do not face mirrors directly — mirror reflections will scatter the Qilin's auspicious-gathering energy field.

The Qilin is a traditional top-tier auspicious divine beast. An ancient saying goes: "Where the Qilin appears, there is sure to be auspiciousness." Both Confucianism and Taoism revere it as an auspicious beast. Legend has it that when a sage is born, a Qilin must appear — symbolizing benevolence, peace, and the arrival of good fortune. The Qilin holds righteous and good energy, dissolving unfavorable energy fields such as sharp corner, road, and beam pressure, blocking evils from entering the home, safeguarding the whole family's peace and stability. The auspicious beast draws auspicious wealth energy from all directions, steadily gathering wealth, firmly guarding family wealth from leakage.

Intangible Heritage Copper Firing Coloration Technique

After fine polishing of the copper ornament's surface, artisans control temperature, heating duration, and reagent ratios to form a dense oxide film on the copper surface at high temperatures, producing richly layered color variations. This coloration is not a coating applied to the surface but a natural texture formed by the copper itself through high-temperature oxidation. Unlike ordinary spray painting, every high-temperature reaction in copper firing coloration is unique.

Mineral Pigment Hand-Painting

Mineral pigment hand-painting is a traditional intangible cultural heritage-level surface craft on brass figurines. It gives cold metal vivid spirit and charm. The pigments originate from traditional Chinese mineral pigments — natural minerals and plant colorants ground into powder, blended with natural animal glue. Hand-painted onto the brass piece, every stroke requires the artisan's manual shading and outlining, with no mechanical replication. Thus, each piece is one of a kind.
