Decorative Statue "Crimson Guardian" – Red Dragon with Crystal Ball, 9 cm
Fire and Ice in Detail
The statue is made of high-quality polyresin, which allows for capturing even the finest details, such as claws or the spines on the dragon's back. The dragon is captured in a defensive posture, with a wing partially covering the sphere, suggesting it has no intention of sharing its hoard. The blue ball (crystal imitation) has a glossy surface that reflects light and adds depth to the piece. Despite its compact dimensions (height 9 cm / 3.5 inches), the statue feels dynamic and alive.
Mythological Insight: The Dragon and the Pearl
The motif of a dragon guarding a sphere or pearl appears in many world mythologies. While in European legends dragons often hoard gold, in Asian cultures, the dragon clutches the "pearl of wisdom" or the "wish-granting pearl." This statue combines both worlds—the European appearance of a winged dragon with the Eastern symbolism of guarding a spiritual treasure. The red colour traditionally symbolizes fire, passion, and power, while the blue orb represents calm, wisdom, and magic.

How to Care for the Dragon
To keep the colours bright and the dragon looking lively, follow these tips:
- Cleaning: Remove dust with a soft brush (ideal for the textured wings and scales) or a dry cloth. Do not use water or chemical cleaners.
- Handling: Polyresin is strong but can shatter if dropped on a hard floor. Pay special attention to thinner parts like the wings and tail.
- Placement: The statue is intended for indoor use.
Warnings
This is a decorative collector's item, not a toy. Keep out of reach of very small children; the statue may have sharper points (wings, horns).
A set of incense sticks or a fantasy mug with a dragon motif would go perfectly with this guardian.
