Chinese Amber Resin Shouxing Sculpture. Classic depiction, holding a peach and a staff. Hole in the base for mounting. 

Size: 5 x 13 x 3 1/4 in. 

#8364 . 

Shouxing, also known as Shou Lao and Nanji Laoren (“Old Man of the South Pole”), is a stellar god of Chinese mythology, one of three known collectively as Fulushou. Though greatly revered as the god of longevity (shou), Shouxing has no known temples dedicated to him. Instead, birthday parties for elders provide a fitting time for visitors to bow before his statue, which is draped in embroidered silk robes. Artistic representations often depict Shouxing as a bearded old man with a high brow and a crooked staff in one hand. He holds the peach of immortality in his other hand. A stork or turtle is often added as a further symbol of longevity, which the Chinese view as an extra special blessing, and sometimes children are seen playing at his feet, as a blessing of long life to newborns.
