Description
Carved Cinnabar Style Red Dragon Statue
This striking piece captures the power and fluid motion of a classic Chinese Imperial dragon, intricately detailed with deep-relief carvings that mimic the traditional cinnabar lacquer technique. Emerging from a base of swirling stylized clouds, the dragon features a segmented body and a fierce, expressive head, likely composed of a molded resin or composite material designed to replicate the weight and texture of antique lacquerware. As a seasoned collector, I appreciate the vibrant vermilion hue and the ornate “mountain and sea” base common in late 20th-century decorative arts. The item appears to be in excellent condition with no visible chips or cracks to the delicate scales or whiskers, showing only very light surface dust from display. Approximately H 18″, W 12″, D 7″ Please use photos to judge condition and bid accordingly. Please note: Buyer is responsible for removal. From the Hollywood Blvd. Cinemas Collection.
