In traditional Chinese culture, the serpent-like dragon is revered as a divine creature and potent symbol of power. For thousands of years, it was associated with the emperor and his descendants, symbolising wisdom, enlightenment, and benevolence.

The dragon was also said to command water and rain, and by ensuring abundant harvests became a powerful symbol of wealth and good fortune. Chinese art often depicts a pair of dragons chasing or fighting over a pearl, a symbol of wisdom and immortality.
