Solar Lion Dance Panda — Cultural Fusion Desk Figurine

Panda in a lion dance costume. Yes, really.

A small solar-powered panda wearing a traditional Chinese lion dance costume. Maximum cultural fusion, maximum cuteness, three colors.

About This Piece

Lion dance is the iconic performance of Lunar New Year celebrations across China, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Malaysia — two performers under an ornate costume, dancing to drums for good luck. Pandas, meanwhile, are literally the national animal of China. Put them together and you get this: a small panda figurine wearing a miniature lion dance costume, waving gently in the sun.

It's the single most culturally specific piece we make, and also one of the most joyful. Three colors available. Perfect for Lunar New Year gifts, for Chinese diaspora families, for anyone who loves the detail of cultural symbolism done with a sense of humor. 4.5 × 4.2 × 5.5 cm. $12.90.
