Sculpted fabric enhances the ethereal look of the sky dragon puppet. With rich detailing, this spectacular dragon features a movable mouth, forelegs and velvet wings to take flight. This champion of mythical creatures is destined to guide your journey into realms of fantasy.
Dragons of the sky appear in almost every storytelling tradition, and they stand for very different things. The Chinese Tianlong guards the palaces of the gods and manages entirely without wings; cloud and rain are the business of other dragons. The winged dragons of European heraldry and legend are adversaries instead, ones the hero has to seek out and face, as the tales of Siegfried and Saint George have it. What the two traditions share is that the dragon stands above the human: lord of the sky, or the trial a hero grows by.
Did you know that dragon bones were traded in China for centuries? Farmers dug them out of hillsides and sold them to apothecaries, who ground them to powder. Only around 1900 did researchers identify them as fossils, and following the find sites led to some of the most important fossil beds in the world.
