Stone lion
In East Asian cultures, the stone lion was an ancient symbol of conservation, longevity and prosperity. They are often placed in pairs in front of palaces, temples or government offices as symbols of power and status. The lion's paw was on a hydrangea. In traditional paired stone lions, the male usually steps on the hydrangeas (a symbol of power) and the female is a cub (a symbol of prosperity). Such stonework is usually made of granite or marble. Historically, heavy stonework has also been used as ballast stone for ships to increase stability.
