Protective Dragon (Red) by Lladró

The representation of supreme power from amongst all the creatures of eastern mythology, the protector dragon displays its magnificence in this High Porcelain creation. A symbol of strength, protection and good luck, this creature, present in all ancient Eastern cultures, drives away evil spirits, protects the innocent and provides security to those who possess it. This limited edition stands out for its striking decoration, dominated by a deep red color combined with golden lusters and enamels. The hundreds of scales covering the skin of the dragon skin are painstakingly painted, one by one. The complex sculpture has an undulating shape in the form of the number eight, the quintessential lucky number in oriental culture.
