These two statues are a replica of two antique wooden statues from Japan to be found in the Yomeimon Gate at the Toshogu Shrine (city of Nikko, Japan).They represent two Zuishin, noblemen or traditional "bodyguards" for high rank dignitaries. Zuishin always come in pairs, one standing at each side of the entranceway. They are carrying swords, bows and arrow-holders as their function was to protect their lord, and even his shrine from evil and wrong-doers. These are dressed in old court costume, with their kimono embroidered with the kikyo flower. They are stately seated on a tiger skin. 15" in height.
