Chinese Dragon Head Brooch RED
Chinese Dragon Head Brooch RED
I've always admired Chinese dragons and Lunar year of the dragon was the perfect time to design one! Chinese dragons don't tend to breathe fire, they breathe clouds instead so you'll often see them surrounded by clouds and flying around in the air. The colour red is very prominent in Chinese culture as well as gold tones this brooch is a really traditional looking piece but due to removing the whiskers I feel it could be a European styled dragon too.
I've pushed myself really hard with this collection and I've spent quite some time on it to get it right. I hope you like the designs!
This is a nice wearable brooch that features the head of my dragon design. It measures approximately w69mm x h70mm when worn. The piece consists of red pearl marble acrylic, gold mirror acrylic, metallic gold acrylic, a fine gold glitter acrylic and plain black acrylic as well as pearlescent white for the dragons eye and dragons teeth, and it is backed with 1mm black acrylic. The brooch pin is made from metal alloy and it is glue on horizontally.
All work is solely done by Rock The Panda designer and maker Ruth Anna Moore in Sheffield, United Kingdom.
The necklace has the Rock The Panda logo and year it was designed (2024) engraved on the back, and comes in it's own box.
All Rock The Panda designs will be limited. They won't ever be mass produced.
Important Info -
Due to my works handmade nature and the fact that some of the acrylic sheet is handmade itself, there will be slight differences in each piece and may be minor imperfections.
Stainless steel is very resilient to tarnish but it may darken slightly over time.
Acrylic can be quite delicate. Handle with care, clean with a soft microfibre cloth and keep your brooch/necklace in the box provided when not being worn. Each piece is water resistant but not waterproof. Please don't immerse in water. Some acrylic, particularly pearl marble acrylic can deteriorate with time (years usually). The surface becomes slightly of pitted/blemished. This can't be avoided unfortunately.
Please be aware that different lighting and being viewed on various screens can show colours slightly differently.
Please note, my work is not intended for children under 15 years.
