Dragon Figurines? We Got ‘Em
Have you ever needed information about an object or topic of such specificity that it was difficult to find reliable and trustworthy sources of facts from people, postings, polls, pages, and the like? Surely those with a unique hobby or a distinctive knack for being a collector of some unusual item have been through such difficulties. This article brings good news for those that have a fancy for one such collectible: dragon figurines.
Dragons are mythical creatures that are featured in legends from many different societies all over the world. They typically take the form of large serpents or reptiles, and are commonly associated to sin and evil. Their influence is huge and ubiquitous across a vast array of cultures, from the Greeks, Persians, and Welsh, to the Chinese, Japanese, and Vietnamese. There are generally two types of dragons; the European dragon which dominated the former three cultures listed previously, and the Chinese dragon which dominated the latter three. Today, dragons are a popular theme in art as well as literature. J.R.R. Tolkien and J.K. Rowling both make frequent uses of dragon characters in their novels, and paintings and sculptures are not rare to feature dragons in their artwork.
Figurines are small sculptures made from ceramic, metal, glass, or other hard material, that represents a human or an animal. They are common as collectibles. Our website is a host to everything dragon figurine, from editorials to reviews and news. This article will reflect on two postings and three products worth noting from the recent posts on this website.
Feng Shui Dragon Guide
Dragons are prominent in feng shui, an ancient Chinese divination method believed to improve life by increasing the chi of an individual. Of all animal beings in feng shui, the dragon is regarded as the strongest, possibly owing to the fact that ancient Chinese emperors referred to themselves as the dragons and made use of the dragon as their symbol, and is thus highly praised and honored. The chi that the dragon generates is associated to wealth and good luck, as well as having healing effects and providing insight and wisdom. Figurines made from multiple different metals can multiply the effects of the dragon.
Dragon figurines can be placed in specific areas to improve one’s chi, in accordance to the laws of feng shui. Placing the dragon in the northern section of your house can improve luck, such as promotions in your current career. The dragon should be placed near a stream of water such as aquariums or fountains as this is believed to multiply the good luck effects. Placing the dragon in an eastern section of your workplace will assure healthiness and uniformity amongst family members, especially if placed on a table of cabinet at or below eye level to ensure that your power is always greater than theirs, and thus their effects can influence you but cannot overpower you.
Color Changing Dragon Figurine
Dragon figurines commonly come with a ball or pearl perched in the dragon’s arms; this is a symbol for fortune and success in your career. The color changing dragon figurine is no exception. The figurine features a blue-grey European-style dragon dressed in medieval armor perched atop a small platform with complex carvings and skulls embedded into it. The dragon holds in its arms a color-changing glowing crystal ball, powered by three AG10 cell batteries (not included with the purchase of the figurine). The material used is polyresin, a sturdy resin compound that can be molded into intricate designs, allowing for the elaborate designs on the platform and dragon. The base measures 4.75 x 3 inches, and the figurine stands 6.5 inches tall. Customer reviews give it an average of 4 of 5 stars, with comments mentioning mostly how well the actual product matched its online descriptions. The figurine is available from amazon.com starting at $15.59.
Black Dragon Computer Speakers
Can’t get enough of dragons? How about a set of black dragon computer speakers to accompany the hours spent in front of your computer every day. These speakers are also made from polyresin, and each is crafted into a dragon hatching out of its egg on a grass-textured base. The center of each egg is the location of the speakers. The figurine measures 10 x 5 inches, standing 7 inches high. It is available also from amazon.com, with prices starting at $38.73.
Dragon Table Lamp
So you’ve got your collection of dragon figurines and statuettes, but how about something that has a purpose rather than being just a simple, plain collectible with no further use? The black dragon computer speakers are one, but how about this dragon table lamp sold by Furniture Creations. This furniture item will make an epic addition to your desktop. It features a grey dragon (again, polyresin) standing on its hind legs, one arm holding a torch where a 7-watt light bulb can be installed inside its glass globe. The dragon is 8.5 x 7 inches at its base, and stands a looming 18 inches tall making it applicable not only as a simple desk lamp but also as a standard wall-mounted light. What a grand entry to your house two of these would make if they were to be decorated on either side of your front door. The product can be purchased from amazon.com from $30.35, light bulb not included.
Wedding Cake Topper
Cake toppers are small models that are placed on top of cakes, generally wedding cakes, for decoration. The most common version of wedding cake toppers is a small model of the bride and groom perched atop the cake. They are inedible and are kept for memory’s sake. Wedding cake toppers are not exclusively a miniature model of the bride and groom; sometimes they can be small figures that symbolize the couple, perhaps a shared interest or hobby between the two. With the recent growing popularity of themed weddings, they can also be elaborate decorations such as, as found on this website, dragon figurines. Dragon figurines as your wedding cake topper would make a perfect addition to a medieval-themed wedding. The best part, of course, comes after the wedding, when you can remove the dragon figurine topping and add it to your collection.
That concludes our brief summary of two posts and three item listings we have available on our website – of course that is just a tiny sneak preview of what the rest of our website offers, so we encourage you to surf our website to see what else we have available on dragon figurines.
