Description: This folk art piece features a very colorful DRAGON embroidery on black silk, crafted by Indigenous craftswomen in Shaanxi*, China. The artwork is presented in a wood shadowbox frame and measures 7 inches in length and height, with a width of 1-5/8 inches. The intricate embroidery depicts the zodiac sign for the Dragon, making it a perfect gift for anyone born in the Year of the Dragon or for those who appreciate Chinese culture. This one-of-a-kind piece was handmade in 2003 using traditional embroidery techniques and is a representation of Chinese folk art. Each Zodiac embroidered animal is crafted by hand and machine stitching and each is unique in color, form and embroidered patterns. The backing is a bright red cotton which is tightly formed over a handmade cardboard insert. These are truly traditional handcrafts, not toys. They have been gifted to village and family newborns and children to honor their virtues and protect their health for many generations. *Shaanxi is the setting of the Terra Cotta Warrior Museum and the Eastern most origin site of the Chinese Silk Road.
