Lennon Tool Bar - Guardian Beasts - Shi Shi Zi 

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.

Shi Shi Zi (Stone Lion): At the entrance of temples, one often finds a pair of stone lions. The male lion steps on a decorative ball, while the female lion nurtures a cub. Day and night, they guard the temple, providing visitors with a sense of peace and tranquility.

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.
