The sculpture is formed using the traditional lost-wax casting method, followed by multiple stages of heat patination. This process gives the bronze surface a rich yet warm depth, while bringing greater dimension to the golden armor, layered robes, and the powerful form of the black tiger under changing light.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eZhao Gongming stands in golden armor with a solemn and commanding expression, holding a gold ingot in his hand. Beside him, the black tiger rests low to the ground, muscular and powerful, poised yet restrained. The contrast between the standing figure and the resting tiger creates a strong sculptural tension, while continuing the traditional symbolism associated with the Martial God of Wealth — dignity, integrity, and prosperity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePeople often hope for the God of Wealth to arrive at their door.
