This is a small collection of Chinese statues I have. The middle one was inherited from my Great Grandmother who lived in Shanghai for a while. I like to think that its inlaid metal details are gold. The other two sculptures were bought a few years ago in a little consignment shop for a few dollars each. Now I call them the three old, wise men. I prefer to think they represent an ancient wisdom tradition of the Chinese culture of times past. There’s much to let go of in all cultures and much of value to treasure from the past in their ongoing evolution. That’s how I see it anyways. 😍
