This bright and shiny puppet dazzles as wearable art. An exquisite pearlescent dragon Finger Puppet, it is made for creative play and storytelling, with magnets in the tail that secure it around your wrist.
In Chinese painting the dragon is almost never shown without its pearl. The pearl floats before its mouth or rests in a claw, standing for wisdom, for the moon and for the force from which all growth comes. Unlike its European counterpart, this dragon hoards no treasure; it brings rain, and with the rain the harvest. Mother-of-pearl suits the idea: light breaks in many wafer-thin layers, so the colour seems to rise from somewhere deep inside.
Did you know that the Chinese New Year dragon dance is led by a pearl? One dancer carries it ahead on a pole, and the long dragon body follows it through the streets, winding after it as it goes. The longer the figure, the more luck it is said to bring — the largest dragons are carried by more than a hundred dancers.
