About the Item

A brilliantly modelled antique red terracotta dragon statue, circa 1900. With its scaled body, large curling tail and great wings, the dragon is poised low to the ground as it clambers over the rocks beneath its taloned feet. Over 125 years old, this dragon sculpture is instilled with a timeworn presence, perhaps once a piece of mythical English folk art. It will make a character decorative feature of homes inside and out!
