Dragon Tianlong, Gold Luster
As a symbol of nobility, power and honor, the dragon is the strongest element in Chinese astrology. The characteristics of those who are born under this sign include courage, ambition and optimism. Celebrate the Year of the Dragon in 2024 with this limited-edition crystal sculpture, accented with gold luster. René Lalique founded his firm in Paris in 1888, and soon became a celebrated jeweler whose designs contributed significantly to the Art Nouveau movement at the turn of the century. In the 1920s, an order for perfume bottles led him to develop a glass-making technique that would endure as Lalique’s signature characteristics: iced surfaces, elaborate or partially realistic patterns in relief, and occasionally applied or inlaid color.
- Limited edition of 188.
- Handcrafted crystal; gold luster.
- Handmade in France.
- 6" long x 3 1/2" high.
- Wipe clean with soft, dry cloth.
