A pixiu (貔貅) with red eyes, crouched on a band of old coins. The pixiu draws wealth in and, with no way to let it out, keeps it, which is why it has been worn as a personal charm for centuries by people who...

A gold-tone pixiu (貔貅) on a silver-tone band, a coin at its mouth. The pixiu is the wealth guardian of feng shui, a creature that swallows gold and silver and never passes them, so whatever it draws toward its wearer, it keeps. Here it...

Seven small spheres on a black disc, set at the points of a star. The seven star array is a crystal grid at its simplest: one stone at each point of a seven-sided star, so that whatever the stones are kept for is held...

A lidded burner turned from black walnut, with a pierced bronze cap. Coil incense sits in the well beneath and the lid holds the burn steady and slow, so one coil carries a whole afternoon. The carving on each cap is its own small...

A brass wealth bowl that turns on its base. The wealth bowl is kept filled and never emptied, on the old idea that what gathers in it gathers in the house. This one has four figures set around the rim, one to each direction,...

A brass gourd banded with the eight trigrams. The hulu (葫芦) takes its shape from the dried calabash once carried to hold medicine, and its narrow waist is read as the meeting of heaven and earth. Taoist practice has long used it to draw...

A rose quartz heart, small enough to close a hand around. Rose quartz is the stone of the open heart, the love offered to others and the gentler kind offered to yourself, and the heart shape only says out loud what the stone already...

Amitabha standing on a lotus, one hand lowered to receive. Amitabha is the Buddha of the Western Pure Land, the one whose name is chanted in daily practice and called on at the end of a life. The lowered right hand is the gesture...

A palm-sized luo pan in solid brass, its centre free to spin. A working luo pan is the feng shui practitioner's compass, the ring of readings a consultant turns to find which way a house faces and what sits in each direction. This is...

A rough cluster of pyrite, the mineral once mistaken for gold. Pyrite is iron sulphide, and it grows in cubes, so a raw piece is all small square faces catching light at different angles. Prospectors called it fool's gold. Feng shui takes the resemblance...

A vajra in cast brass, five prongs closed at each end. In Tibetan practice the vajra is held in the right hand and the bell in the left: method and wisdom, the pair that has to work together. The form is specific. A sphere...

A seated Buddha in frosted white, the robe edged in gold. The style is Thai: the flame finial rising from the crown, the long ears, the narrow waist, the robe caught with a band of gold and scattered with gold leaves. The two larger...

A small phurba crowned with Hayagriva, the horse-headed protector. The phurba is the three-sided ritual dagger of Tibetan Buddhism, its blade for pinning down the three things that keep a mind clouded: ignorance, craving, and anger. This one carries the wrathful face of Hayagriva...

Three rams in folded planes, two grown and one small. San yang kai tai, three rams open the way to peace, is the wish written over doors at the turn of the year. It comes from the I Ching, where the hexagram Tai, peace,...

Two deer folded into planes, one standing, one settled. In Chinese the word for deer, lu, is spoken the same way as the word for an official's salary, so a deer in the house has long stood for income and rank. It is also...

A laughing Buddha in rough clay, seated inside a ring of light. Budai is kept for contentment, the monk who laughs at what other people worry over, and for the fortune that seems to follow anyone that easy to be around. Here he sits...

A phoenix in glossed blue and gold, rising through a ring of mirrored glass. The fenghuang is the bird of the south in feng shui, kept for opportunity, recognition and a good name, the one set out when a household or a business is...
