The divine bird Guanguan of Qingqiu Mountain resembles a turtledove in appearance yet emits a cry that sounds like a sharp rebuke; its feathers, when worn as adornments, are said to ward off illusions and bewilderment—yet it is both a natural ally and a natural adversary to the Nine-Tailed Fox. From a practical, utilitarian creature in the Shanhai Jing to a cherished symbol of auspiciousness in later eras, Guanguan’s image was gradually refined and embellished, evolving into a cultural emblem of exorcism, fidelity, and the restoration of moral clarity in the world.

This 3D‑printed Guanguan takes flight from the fantastical realms of the Shanhai Jing, meticulously recreating the ethereal grace of this ancient sacred bird with intricate, lifelike textures. Its towering crest stands proudly atop its head, while its wing feathers are adorned with delicate, scale‑like patterns. Perched upon a sleek base, it seems to echo the timeless, rustic cadence of “its own voice calling out,” while simultaneously harnessing modern manufacturing techniques to bring the enduring allure of this primordial mythical beast into the present—a unique collectible born from the collision of myth and technology, transforming the legendary tales of the Shanhai Jing into a tangible, palpable reality for today’s audiences.
