Asian door knockers are guardians at the gate and spell-casters. Indeed, ancient oriental cultures held that a door knocker's first duty was to guard the dwelling. Chi Lin door knockers from China are guardians of the energy of the home from evil spirits and natural disasters. The Fu Lion door knocker is reminiscent of the statues that once stood guard before great palaces, to cast off evil spells. While a Chinese fish door knocker is a symbol of good luck, health and wealth; a blessing on the home.
