Nine Dragon Transformations · Resting on Stone

Nine postures, each with its own expression. Nine Dragon Transformations · Resting on Stone shares the collection’s round thin rim and graphite-black colored brass, with restrained warm-brass accents on selected scales and horn tips. A single dragon curls on low rock at the lower right, its head resting toward lower left with a gentle upward gaze; one thin cloud leaves the upper field quiet. Fine scales and flowing whiskers follow the continuous metal field, while the central mounting area stays quiet and both auxiliary apertures remain open. Low rock at the lower left and a cloud curl at the upper right hold the same quiet mood on the reverse. Black wrapping, ivory diamond windows and coordinated brass fittings connect the two faces and continue the collection’s shared palette and ornament.
