Stunning Ivory Dragon Bowl

The Dragon and Enemies

The dragon fears nothing except the elephant with whom he will engage in battle, entwining himself around the elephant and inflicting fatal blows. However, as the elephant finally collapses, his fall crushes the dragon to death.

The dragon is supposedly the enemy of the sun and the moon, both in Eastern and Western mythology, and is believed to be responsible for eclipses. These occur when the dragon is attempting to swallow either of the heavenly bodies; which accounts for the dragon's appearance in primitive astronomy.

This stunning bowl has a removable lid and is done in faux ivory.  The ivory is carved in relief.  It measures approximately 5 inches across and is absolutely a treasure.  You will be proud to display this item with your decor.
