The fifth animal in the Chinese zodiac, the dragon has been depicted in Asian art and culture as a mystical creature with extraordinary power and influence. This pate de verre figure from France's renowned house of Daum portrays the fantastic beast with an intense expression, snakelike body, and fierce claws. The form is deftly sculpted using the lost wax method, then cast from molten crystal. Handcraftsmanship makes each numbered piece one of a kind. 4 1/4"W x 5 1/4"H.
