dragone iconico | handmade ltreasure-chest by davide quartero
This marvellous little treasure chest is a real tribute to Chinese culture and the creature that most symbolises it - the dragon.
The dragon is recognised as the most fantastical creature in all of Chinese mythology because it combines many different aspects or facets: for instance, it is said that the dragon can influence the whole of the natural world and bring goodwill and fertility by using its sheer power.
Bearing that in mind, I started to create a unique treasure chest made of precious materials such as sterling silver, rose gold, a marvellous piece of ancient coral and white diamonds, a chest that might one day hold the famous "Dragon Pearl".
