Chinese Dragon, 6 inch polystone. The Dragon is one of the four benevolent animals in Chinese culture. The other three are the Unicorn, Phoenix and Tortoise. Contrary to the mythical Dragon of western cultures, which generally associate the Dragon with evil power, the Chinese Dragon is a splendid good-willed creature. The Dragon is believed to have descended from Heaven. It governs not only the sky but it also sets the laws of the land. In Feng Shui, Dragons are used to symbolize power and control.
