In classical Chinese, the character for deer (鹿) and the character for blessing (祿) are both pronounced 'rock,' so our ancestors believed that images of deer possessed the power to ward off misfortune and illness. In traditional Korean folk paintings, deer are always depicted in pairs or more, and alongside lingzhi mushrooms. This painting is called Ssangnokdo (雙鹿圖), depicting a scene where deer generously share lingzhi mushrooms—believed to grant eternal youth—with one another. Hohohdang's Baby Deer Arm Pillow brings the spirit of Ssangnokdo to your baby's side as a plush pillow. The pillow maintains the natural silhouette of a deer, featuring a soft pure cotton cover, while the interior is filled with micro-fiber stuffing to create a cozy, cloud-like texture. Each piece is completed with meticulous handwork, with no shortcuts taken in any detail. The back of the pillow has an opening where you can slip your arm through, making it easy and comfortable to cradle your baby while nursing or helping them fall asleep. That's how it earned the name 'arm pillow.' When you slip the deer-shaped pillow onto your arm and hold your little one, you and your baby become a loving pair, just like the two deer in Ssangnokdo. This pillow is made with the hope that your child will grow up kind and healthy, just like a deer. Material: Cotton cover, micro-fiber stuffing Construction: Handmade
