This striking vintage cloisonne enamel figurine depicts a dynamic sea dragon, a traditional symbol of power, strength, and good fortune. The dragon is finely crafted with intricate wirework separating enamel cells in vibrant shades of green and white, depicting detailed scale patterns along its serpentine body. It features a gilded head with flowing mane and horns, gilded dorsal fins, claws, and tail, and is depicted with its mouth open and one claw raised, holding a gilt flaming pearl. The figure stands upon an integral rectangular base decorated with elaborate gilt cloud and wave motifs, and a rectangular plaque containing the characters "招財進寶" (Attracting Wealth and Treasures). The underside bears an embossed square seal mark containing the characters "乾隆年製" (Made in the Qianlong Period). This sculpture is a striking example of traditional cloisonne craftsmanship and makes a distinguished decorative accent.
