A pair of CHINESE POLYCHROME PORCELAIN PHEASANTS, 20th century.

 






Phoenix bird (fenix) or Hong bird (fenghuang) is known in China as a bird of heaven that covers the upper world or heaven and a mythological bird that symbolizes good luck. The Phoniex bird is an imaginary or mythological bird that is unique in terms of visuals and symbols.

Nationalgeographic.co.id—The Phoenix tells of an ancient legend painting the image of a magical, shining and shimmering bird, which lived for several hundred years before dying from a fire.

He is then reborn from the ashes, to start a new, long life. So strong was the symbolism that they became motifs and images that are still commonly used today in popular culture and folklore.

The legendary creature is a large bird like an eagle or a peacock. Its color is brilliant with reds, purples, and yellows, because it is associated with the rising of the sun and fire.

Sometimes a nimbus would surround it, illuminating it in the sky. Her eyes were blue and shone like sapphires. It builds its own pyre or nest, and lights it with a single flap of its wings. After death, he rose majestically from the ashes and flew away.
