This Amazing Dragon Sumba Ikat Weaving is from an antique textile and it has a powerful vibration. The Dragon, made from Nassa Shells is the focal point. The main bag is made from an Art Nouveau Tapestry textile in blues. I chose this juxtaposition because during the Nouveau period Dragons and Griffins were used as art motifs and were potent symbols of magic and power. The contrast fabrics are hand woven cotton mud cloth from Africa.
A Dragon totem is one of the most powerful totems, representing a huge range of qualities, emotions, and traits. When Dragons come to us, it could mean many things.
The most common message a Dragon totem carry to us is a need for strength, courage, and fortitude. Dragons are also messengers of balance, and magic - encouraging us to tap into our psychic nature and see the world through the eyes of mystery and wonder.
More specifically, Dragons are the embodiment of primordial power - the ultimate ruler of all the elements. This is because the Dragon is the master of all the elements: Fire, Water, Earth, and Wind.
The base bag is made from gorgeous earth tone tapestry fabric and it is trimmed with antique mola fabric and handwoven and embroidered Hmong Hill Tribe fabric. Inside are pockets with one designed to hold your iPad. The bag is 16" high, 24" wide at the widest point at the top and it is 6" deep. Closes with a durable zipper. The handles are made by women artisans in the Ozarks of a supple and gorgeous leather. This is a mythic bag for you to carry your mythic life things in!
