Title: | TOGGLE DRAGON BUCKLE |
Inventory#: | VE17247 |
Size: | 1.00" x 2.75" |
Country: | CHINA |
Price: | $580 |
A roughly carved buckle for toggle with a curling dragon. The buckle is a symbol of binding or attachment while the dragon is a symbol of power, virility, guardianship and strength. It protects against all evil. Dragon dancers are actively sought after and handsomely paid for important events in life, New Years, business openings, anniversaryâs and weddings. To be bound to the dragon is to protect ones business and marriage against all adversity and to guarantee a year of good fortune. Given this it is a surprise we do not see everyone versed in Chinese symbolism sporting a dragon tattoo! Elm wood, 19th c.
