Antique sculpture "Dragon" Made of bronze. This dragon belongs to the Futsanlong subspecies, meaning "treasure-hiding dragon." The effect of the sculptured figure is enhanced by its size and meticulous attention to detail: the scales, the body, the shape of the muzzle, the tail crest, and the clouds on which the sculpture is mounted. 

The dragon is one of the most famous symbols of prosperity. It embodies strength, endurance, and generosity. And the pearl in its paw is a symbol of spiritual and material well-being, considered the creature's greatest wealth.

In China, the dragon with the pearl of wisdom was considered the emperor's divine patron, personifying greatness and wisdom.
