Here is yet another beautiful piece. This is a small silver enamel pin of a dragon. Just look at the colors and detail. It is hallmarked but can't tell what it is. Most likely Chinese. What do you think the white piece is? The dragon seems to be looking at it.
I just love this piece. Im guessing its an antique.
The Pearl of Wisdom, I think.
In chinese mythology dragon means kingdom.
It is symbol rain and spring, and it is also adversary of greed and stinginess.
Thanks to all. A beautiful little pin. Such detail all the way down to the scales of the dragon.
Wow thanks much. We know now that it is Japanese. Is the dragon the same in Chinese also? I mean as far as beliefs.
