Dragons hold a prominent place in Chinese mythology, and are a symbol of strength and good luck. These mythical creatures are often depicted in chinoiserie designs and Dragon Florals features a striking 'true blue' base with a powerful dragon at its heart.
Blue and gold is a glamorous partnership and conjures up images of elegant and regal occasions. The colours are beautifully highlighted with a sprinkling of pink peony roses, a flower which symbolises romance, prosperity and good fortune.
'The ultimate symbol of cosmic energy qi 气 and the most powerful symbol of good fortune. Ranked first among mythical beasts, it can bring rain to parched lands and thus represents abundance and relief.'
