Dragons are some of the most traditional Chinese good luck symbols. In China, dragons representations can be seen everywhere. They are the ultimate symbol of power, this is why they have been chosen to represent the Chinese Emperors. Dragons also represent the masculine energy (yang) and carry a powerful force of creativity and activity.
A Feng Shui dragon symbolizes success in any achievement as well as prosperity. Placing a dragon image in the office is always said to bring good fortune.
The east side is the best place where to place the dragon to represent excellent Feng Shui. This is why places with excellent Feng Shui are said to enjoy the dragon’s cosmic breath.
The Feng Shui good luck dragon shown here is from my series “Spirit of Copperopolis”. It is a series of glass tiles framed in hand hammered copper and has been named after a famous Arizona Ghost Town (Arizona being known as the copper state).
Each frame is 10″ square and 3/4″ thick. The copper is sealed to be protected against oxidation.
The kiln-formed glass tile, 5 1/2″ square, features:
- black glass base with copper hand painted motifs,
- complementary dichroic accents along the edges,
- hand painted 14K gold decorations.
A bientôt,
