2024 Year of the Dragon Chopstick Rest Pair

Description

They may be tiny, but this handsomely sculpted pair of pewter dragons still have a presence when prowling the table.

Folk tales recount the oriental zodiac’s origins with the story of the Great Race, called by the deity the Jade Emperor to assign each year in the 12-year cycle an animal in the order they reached him by crossing a river. First past the post was the Rat, then the Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Ram, Monkey, Rooster, Dog and Pig.
