Brass Dragon – Two Variations
These miniature brass dragon figures combine intricate detail with rich cultural symbolism. One features the classic form of the Chinese dragon with a coiled body and flowing mane, while the other takes the form of the turtle dragon, or Bixi, an ancient mythological creature with the body of a turtle and the head of a dragon.
Across many traditions, dragons are powerful emblems of strength, good fortune, and transformation. In Chinese culture, the dragon is revered as the ultimate symbol of wisdom, power, and auspicious energy. It is said to attract success, protect from misfortune, and invite prosperity into the home. The turtle dragon, associated with longevity, endurance, and grounded strength, is often placed in workspaces or homes to support stability and long-term success.
Both pieces are cast in solid brass with a warm antique finish and fine textural detail. They serve equally well as spiritual tokens, decorative accents, or collectibles, bringing a timeless presence to your altar, office, or home environment.
