Handmade Chinese Dragon 12-inch Statue (China)

An ancient symbol of strength and nobility, the dragon is one of the most iconic images of China. This beautiful statue cast in resin is part of a tradition of depicting these powerful beings that goes back to ancient times. Serpentine in form, this dragon boldly strides forward, clutching a silver orb. Thought to represent a rare pearl, or perhaps the sun, the dragon's orb is a symbol that is almost as old as the dragon itself. Featuring fine detailing and a silver finish, this beautiful sculpture is a fine way to bring the splendor and mystery of this exotic creature to your home or business.

Story Behind the Art:
This handcrafted item and many others come from a third generation family-run workshop in mainland China. Their skills of hand-painting, hand-rubbed lacquering, and hand-tooling have been passed down for many generations. We are proud to support them in their quest to keep their age-old techniques alive for future generations. Many of the artists are hired out of semi-retirement to work from home training the next generation to become master craftsmen. These masters are highly respected in their craft and their culture which have survived through many Chinese dynasties and continue to produce valuable and desirable pieces for your home decor.
