I stumbled across this sculpture of a lion, which looked very precious to me. Not sure out of what kind of material it was made of, but I'm quite sure it wasn't marble. Probably limestone or sandstone.

 

Notice how the lion has its left paw on an emblem - often described as "the lion is resting his paw on ..." I interpret it as a symbol of life-giving power or protection.
