Sculpture of a Chinese imperial dragon with a sinuous body, standing on its four legs, mouth open in jadeite or serpentine jade. The work reflects a traditional Asian craftsmanship blending symmetry, movement, and symbolism: the dragon, a symbol of power and luck, embodies the emperor and the vital forces of nature. I would like to point out the presence of discreet restorations (two feet have been reattached and others).
