From January 5 – February 26, 2012, Gumpʼs San Francisco presents The Year of The Dragon. Beautiful and legendary, the dragon’s power and mystique have captivated the world for thousands of years. It is these qualities that have both influenced and inspired our stunning new installation of Asian-inspired treasures including fine art, ceramics, and decorative accents for your home. Folklore dictates that the dragon is a symbol of good luck, a fitting theme for you and your home as we begin a new year. ”We are thrilled to bring you this unique collection from artists and designers whose one-of-a-kind creations capture this exotic essence.”
