Natural Antler Vintage DIY Beads

This charm is hand-carved from genuine natural antler in the shape of Pi Xiu (Pixiu) a traditional Chinese mythical creature with a dragon’s head, horse’s body, and lion’s paws. It looks fierce but slightly cute at the same time. In Chinese culture, Pixiu is famous for “eating without exiting” — it absorbs wealth and fortune from all directions and keeps it from leaking out. It’s also believed to ward off evil spirits.
