From the elegant fur that seems to come alive under your fingertips to their piercing eyes that seem to hold wisdom beyond their years. The smoothness of the mother of pearl adds a perfect touch, adding an unparalleled iridescence to these pieces. These adorable foxes sit side by side, each with a mischievous grin that hints at their playful nature.

The fox (Łanako) is often called “sly,” and this quality may be attributed to the way this creature camouflages itself while silently observing the world around it. The fox’s senses are ever alert, so that it may avoid any danger for itself and its closely bonded family. Twenty-one types of foxes exist around the planet, and in various cultures they are associated with the feminine, as well as with the supernatural, including sixth sense perception, invisibility, and shapeshifting.

The fox meaning can remind us not to reveal too much too soon, or that exercising discretion and restraint can be key to self-empowerment. One great gift of fox medicine is that they can adapt well to most anything for the good of the self and clan, so they will most certainly survive, dwelling comfortably in the borderlands and twilight, always allowing for a bit of amusement and magic along the way.
