Theme: "The Rising Dragon"
From
ancient times, the dragon has been worshipped as a water god, said to rise
up into the heavens above. Traditional
lore has it that the water that rises with the dragon is what moistens the
ground, and together with the sun rising from the East, brings abundant
harvests. The dragon has long
been considered a symbol of the Chinese culture.
It is believed that the dragon is a nature god invented by the
ancestors of the Chinese people. The
sight of lighting, which accompanies the natural phenomenon of clouds
gathering and the ensuring rainfall, is thought to have been the inspiration
for the dragon. Lighting bolts
are expressed exquisitely with the mother-of-pearl inlays which glitter and
change color depending on the way that the light strikes them.
Today it is believed that people from prehistory who were awed by
such natural phenomena created and worshipped the dragon as a symbolic
entity to which they attributed this overwhelming power.
With this special limited edition writing instrument, that power is
yours.
