Lennon Tool Bar - Guardian Beasts - Feng Shi Ye

Guardian Beasts refer to the loyal protectors often seen in Taiwanese traditional beliefs. Some guard temples, others preserve history, some calm strong winds, and others have served under different religious beliefs. These guardian beasts silently safeguard people across Taiwan.

Feng Shi Ye (Wind Lion God): In the past, many shrines were established in Taiwan, but after the departure of the Japanese government, these shrines gradually declined and were converted into temples. However, many Komainu statues remained, quietly residing in the newly transformed temple grounds, continuing to protect the people of Taiwan.

About Lennon Tool Bar:
Lennon Tool Bar was founded in 2014 at Tamsui, Taiwan. Initially, it started to promote arts and crafts of Indigo Dyeing, a business that flourished a century ago in Taiwan, and at the time, Taiwan exported a considerable amount of "doroai," or the raw material of colorants used in Indigo Dyeing, to the Japanese Empire. Lennon Tool Bar draws inspiration from the traditional process and the popular colors used in Indigo Dyeing.
