The dragon — a celestial creature and a respected symbol of strength and good fortune — is one of the many celebrated deities in the zodiac; most recently, 2024 was the Year of the Dragon. In its mouth, the dragon holds a pearl, inspired by ancient Chinese legends in which dragons are known to protect and care for their pearls.
