Comments : A perfect little baby dragon curled up and resting on a mossy rock amid ferns. Its as if he was just awoken from a doze and calmly gazes around. He certainly doesn't seem too concerned about anything and looks like he is about to drop off to sleep again.

This is another fine example of a carving by a true master. The detail is astounding... just look at the scales and the dragon's expression. It is so life-like the way the dragon is curled up with its tail wrapped around itself. This was carved from a solid piece of ruby and zoisite. The ruby forms as large hexagonal crystals (not of the transparent sort) and if you look carefully you can sort of see the hexagon impression where the dragon is resting. I love the way the carver has used his imagination and worked with the two colours of the rocks. The green of the zoisite makes a lovely mossy rock and ferns. The ruby red dragon is simply perfect... just think, a dragon carved from ruby!

A very fine unique carving.
