Add a powerful presence to your garden or entranceway with this large Oriental cast iron dragon gate post finial.
Expertly cast in solid iron and aged to a beautiful natural patina, this dramatic sculpture captures the coiled majesty of a traditional Eastern dragon.
Its sinuous, scale-covered body rises from stylised cloud scrolls, while its fierce expression, whiskered snout, and upright horns evoke strength, protection, and mythical grandeur.
Likely inspired by Chinese or Japanese gate guardians, this statement piece would have originally topped a gatepost or flanked an entrance, warding off negative energy and symbolising prosperity and protection.
Whether used as a finial, sculpture, or freestanding garden ornament, this dragon makes a stunning visual impact.
