Made of porcelain, the three gods are seen in most Chinese households and bring positive Feng-Shui.
Wearing a hat of a high official in the emperor's court, the god Lu represents good fortune. As a society based on Confucius's scholar-statesman philosophy, the way to acquire good fortune was first to receive a good education and then to become a high rank official. He is always in the center of these three.



Three Vintage Chinese Porcelain Lucky Gods, all are hallmarked on the base. Fu (good luck), Lu (high rank and fortune), and Shou (longevity) are considered the three essential elements for a happy life in Chinese Culture.

He is always seen with a peach in his hand which is a symbol of longevity in Chinese mythology.
