Product Overview
A long, slender brass dragon paired with a ball, 20cm from end to end and 7cm high. It is handmade in Indonesia and weighs 221g, so it sits lightly on a mantelpiece or a sideboard, where its length gives it room to read as a sculpture rather than a trinket.
The Story Behind the Design
In Chinese art the dragon is a symbol of power and good fortune, and it is often shown chasing or holding a pearl, a motif usually read as wisdom or the pursuit of something precious. Feng shui tradition often places dragon figures on the east side of a room, the direction it links with the dragon.
