Guardians of Flame | Artisan Dragon Figurine Set
This four-piece collection presents dragons in two striking traditions: the wise serpents of the East and the stout, whimsical sentinels of the West. Each figure is hand-carved and hand-painted in Uruguay, then accented with gold, platinum, and richly layered enamel glazes. Every detail, each scale, claw, and brow, speaks to the patience of the artisan’s touch.
Though silent, each dragon in this set has a voice. Together, they tell a story that reaches beyond cultures of power, protection, myth, and memory.
1. Copper Chinese Dragon
Dimensions: 12×06×11 cm (4 3/4″ × 2 3/8″ × 4 3/8″) | Issue Year: 2023
This dragon coils in an eternal stance, alert but still. Its body, layered in scalloped copper enamel, gleams like hammered metal under light. Every scale is shaped with care, radiating outward like a thousand fans. The face is composed, with a slight smile, wise, watchful, and ancient.
In Chinese culture, dragons are not beasts of destruction, but cosmic guardians. They govern the rain, the rivers, and the rhythm of heaven. This figurine channels that same balance: authority without violence, strength without vanity.
2. Red Chinese Dragon
Dimensions: 12×06×11 cm (4 3/4″ × 2 3/8″ × 4 3/8″) | Issue Year: 2023
A sibling in form but not in spirit, this dragon shimmers in tones of ember and bloodstone. Where the copper dragon is measured, this one pulses with energy. Its coloring glows like coals at the edge of flame, its posture equally poised, but more restless, like a force ready to shift winds or stir tides.
The red dragon has long symbolized fire, vitality, and transformation. It represents motion, creativity, and the need to act with direction. Paired with the copper version, it forms a complementary duality: Yin and Yang in sculpted form.
3. Baby Dragon Figurine
Dimensions: 05×05×09 cm (1 7/8″ × 1 7/8″ × 3 1/2″) | Issue Year: 2018
This baby dragon feels carved from curiosity itself. Its wide eyes and curled posture give it a youthful, slightly unsure air - part guardian, part explorer. Its palette shifts between warm bronze and earthy green, with gold-tipped claws and ridged tail.
This figure speaks not of legend, but of learning. It’s a reminder that even myths begin small, that protection and power grow with time. It’s a dragon still becoming; a flame not yet lit, but glowing.
4. Western Dragon Figurine (Shield Dragon)
Dimensions: 06×07×11 cm (2 3/8″ × 2 3/4″ × 4 3/8″) | Issue Year: 2018
This is the stoic heart of the set. With a curled tail, raised snout, and shield pressed to its chest, it stands not in attack, but in defense. Its design leans toward medieval folklore: less serpent, more sentry. The enameled crest decorated on the shield resembles a lion, a nod to European heraldry and the ancient bonds between dragon and knight.
This dragon does not burn villages. It guards gates. It holds memories, stories, and symbols. In its quiet presence is the whisper of oaths once sworn and kingdoms once lost.
This bundle captures the cultures that dreamed them into being. The Eastern dragons embody cosmic flow, balance, wisdom, and elemental grace. The Western dragons ground myth in medieval structure: duty, protection, and inner strength. And the baby dragon bridges both, a timeless creature still choosing its path.
There is something deeply human in the dragon myth: our longing for power that listens, for strength that protects, for danger shaped by meaning. These figurines watch. They wait. They remember...
They bring to the home not a fiery spectacle, but a quiet legend; a shared myth, sculpted by hand and gilded by tradition.
