Mythical Creatures Ceramic Coaster Set – Set of 4

Phoenix · White Tiger · Azure Dragon · Black Tortoise & Snake

Four Guardians · Four Stories · One Collection

For those who can't choose just one, this special ceramic coaster set brings together all four creatures from the Solkatt Designs Mythical Creatures Collection.

The set includes one Phoenix, one White Tiger, one Azure Dragon and one Black Tortoise & Snake coaster, creating a beautifully balanced set that represents four distinctive stories and symbols.

Each coaster features original Japanese-inspired artwork created for the collection, with rich colour, intricate detail and warm gold accents tying the four designs together.

Made from ceramic sandstone with a smooth matte finish, each generously sized 10.7 cm square coaster is completed with a protective cork backing to help protect your surfaces.

The Meaning Behind the Four Mythical Creatures

Inspired by the legendary Four Symbols of East Asian mythology, each creature carries its own symbolism and character.

The Phoenix — Suzaku
A symbol of renewal, resilience, strength and hope. The Phoenix represents the ability to rise again, embrace change and move forward with renewed purpose.

The White Tiger — Byakko
Associated with strength, courage, protection and confidence. The White Tiger represents standing strong, trusting your inner strength and protecting what matters.

The Azure Dragon — Seiryu
A symbol associated with strength, growth, vitality and forward movement. The Azure Dragon represents momentum, possibility and the confidence to continue moving ahead.

The Black Tortoise & Snake — Genbu
Representing protection, endurance, stability and resilience. The tortoise and entwined snake symbolise remaining grounded through change and having the strength to endure.

Together, the four creatures create a collection centred around strength, renewal, courage, protection and resilience.

Four different stories. One powerful collection.

Product FAQ's

What are the coasters made of?

Each coaster is crafted from durable, high-density ceramic designed to absorb condensation and protect your surfaces. The base is lined with natural cork to prevent scratching and slipping on delicate tabletops.

Are these coasters absorbent?

Yes. The unglazed matte ceramic naturally wicks away surface moisture and condensation from cold drinks, preventing pooling and stopping glasses from sticking to the coaster.

Which mythical creatures are included in the set?

This set features four core mythical icons: the Phoenix, Dragon, White tiger, and Black Tortoise & Snake. Each illustration is permanently printed into the ceramic with heat-set inks so details won't rub or peel off.

Will drinks like coffee or red wine leave permanent stains?

Because ceramic is naturally porous to absorb moisture, dark liquids like red wine, tea, or espresso should be wiped off promptly. For stubborn spots, make a paste of baking soda and water, gently rub the surface, let it sit for 10 minutes, and wipe clean.

Cleaning and care guide

To keep your ceramic sandstone coasters looking their best:
Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth.
For more thorough cleaning, gently hand wash.
Do not soak or submerge for extended periods.
Do not place in the dishwasher.
Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.
Allow the coaster and cork backing to dry completely before storing.
