This pair of exquisitely carved ivory cups are masterfully carved in the traditional and mystical dragon pattern. They each stand 3 1/2 inches high (with the stands) and weight 6.7oz each or a total of 13.4oz. The Dragon is one of the most powerful and lucky Signs of the Chinese Zodiac. Its warm heart makes the Dragon's brash, fiery energy far more palatable. This is a giving, intelligent and tenacious Sign that knows exactly what it wants and is determined to get it. Those who are blessed by the Dragon possess a certain natural, charming charisma that ensures they can always influence their peers and often find themselves the center of attention in social situations. This Sign is truly blessed. Dragons are considered to be very lucky in love! As lucky as they are, those blessed by the Dragons have a good chance of achieving considerable material wealth during their lifetime, although it isn't mere money that's this Sign's main motivation. Power is what the Dragon wants and truly believes it deserves. The role of leader is the only one the Dragon wants, the better from which to give orders and be king of the hill. They make solid leaders, knowing instinctively what needs to be done to stay on top. These cups were created by a Master for an aristocrat; and should be owned by a leader or one who wants to be blessed with such a nature. The slight patina adds beauty and age.
