Resin Dragon Figurines

Statues, depictions, and figurines of the Chinese dragon have long been auspicious symbols of power and prosperity in Chinese culture, stemming from ancient art and folklore. These dragon figurines are available as wholesale. The beautifully-crafted statues represent centuries of culture and tradition, well-suited for decorative purposes and auspicious displays.

These dragon figurines are cast in resin and come in a variety of sizes mostly from 13 to 16cms tall, with some taller than 25cms. Smaller figurines weigh approximately 300 grams, and the larger ones weigh more than 3kgs. They come in many shapes including statues of the traditional long-tailed dragon and turtle shell dragons as well as dragon shaped boats and sculpted vases. The figurines are all manufactured in Thailand with high-quality resin and possess the deep mahogany colour of resin.

The dragon is an icon of Chinese tradition and mythology that has and has often been viewed as one of the country's national emblems. Depictions of the Chinese dragon have become popular in the West as cultural icons as well as decorative item and statues. In China, the dragon is deeply respected, and it is taboo to disfigure its image in any way. These dragon figurines are very sturdy and easy to keep clean. The natural sheen of the resin will not fade over the years, nor will the quality.

The Chinese dragon, or Long, is a magnificent snake-like creature with the scales of a fish and numerous claws. It is thought to be the most powerful and divine of all creatures, and appears in many cultures across eastern Asia. The dragon statue is associated with rain and the weather, having accumulated an abundance of supernatural powers in the centuries since its inception. The four dragon kings were said to be able to change shape and had full command of the seas, bringing rain and giving drought.

Today the dragon is still widely remembered as a symbol of power and authority. Its image can be seen in dragon statues and on wall paintings in temples all across Asia. The traditional dragon still plays an integral role in celebration of the Chinese New Year, with its rich cultural heritage. The dragon is featured as one of the twelve animals in the Chinese zodiac, and many Chinese proverbs still in circulation make reference to the dragon figurines, invoking images of success and power.
