A medium size 17-18th century antique Chinese architectural carving of a wonderful scaled dragon with what looks like a fish tail in original finish with a great expression and composition showing layered sculptural visual effect. Minor breakage. As is.

It is said that there were nine dragons who were nine sons of the sun. The dragon with scales was originally said to be a water dragon who could command rain and water. 2004 is the Year of the Dragon!
