Agate Fox

A beautifully carved fox made of grey-blue agate, topped with deep purple amethyst that has been left in its original natural form.

The nine-tailed fox (Kitsune in Japanese, Gumiho in Korean, Huli jing in Chinese) is a traditional mythical creature of East Asia, a symbol of longevity and wisdom. The fox grows one tail every hundred years, up to a maximum of nine, which is why nine tails symbolise the wisest of these creatures.
