Over the years, dragon gifts have grown in popularity, thanks in part to modern fiction, movies, and television. We see the figure of the dragon as a sign not only of power and might (as in the Western dragon) or prosperity (typical of the Oriental creature), but also as a reminder of our favorite book, show, or cinema extravaganza. Manufacturers and designers of dragon gifts, collectibles, and figurines have made the likeness of the great creatures available to potential buyers in a vast variety of merchandise. Dragon gift-givers can choose from the likes of swords, mirrors, treasure boxes, and frames, all depicting the great winged animal in some form or another. Bookends are available to hold up those great works of dragon fiction and folklore while others may choose lamps, clocks, or vases featuring incredible depictions of the mystical beings. One may drink from a dragon glass or goblet, available in everything from crystal to pewter, or read by the light of the candles of multi-tiered dragon candelabra. Or perhaps a game of chess is in order, complete with pieces featuring not only the creatures of the dark underworld but kings, castles and mystical orbs as well. There is no shortage of gifts for the dragon aficionado and certainly, the bona fide collector can find enough pieces (and then some!) to decorate their entire home with likenesses of their favorite being. Sculptures are among the most collectible of dragon pieces. Literally hundreds of depictions of the animal are available on the mass market. One can find tiny dragons or those that will fill the top of a coffee table. There are 2, 3, and 4-headed dragons and, of course, your garden variety single-headed being. Dragons sit upon castles, fight with warriors, or hold crystalline orbs. Some are just coming into the world, hatching from their huge eggs. Many pieces are limited edition, sculpted by the artist themselves. Sculptures are resplendent in blown glass, alabastrite or crystal, more subdued in ceramic, pewter, bronze, or wood Prices vary according to size and material but there is certainly a dragon collectible available for every gift-giving occasion. Small dragon figurines can be just the right size for the collector with a limited amount of space or for the young collector. Also available in a variety of styles, the figurines are easily displayed in a china cabinet or other case. Figurines can be of both Eastern and Western origin and may be whimsical in nature as well. Clever, tiny depictions of “career” dragons (nurse dragon, musician dragon) are available as are miniature sculptures of everyone’s favorite movie creatures.
