The two lions (Shishi) close to Juliet's heart are the only possessions her mother held in her arms when she came to Holland. "They were the only things she was able to bring with her from her home country. She even had to leave my brother behind with my grandmother in Singapore. We Chinese don't talk about our feelings, but with these lions, I just feel the heaviness my mother must have felt, leaving your home without being able to take your child with you. Speaking of power women, this is one! When I look at these lions, I see her strength and pride in the figurines."
