VTG MCM Asian Brass Metal Tiger-Dragon Yin-Yang Wall Hanging Plaque Set of 2

Description: Each bronze panel has a loop on the back for hanging and the metals appears to be brass or bronze. In excellent vintage condition. They feature Asian style dragon and tiger in the center of each panel. The dragon is surrounded by clouds and lightening, and the tiger is standing on a rock in front of bamboo. Please see all pictures as they are part of the description. They weigh 2lb 13oz. I resisted cleaning them up as some like the aged “patina”. I bet they will shine back to new condition as the metal is in beautiful shape. Fun facts: Both a tiger and dragon are powerful animals. The tiger represents the yin (female), and dragon represents the yang (male). The basic aim of chi energy is to maintain the balance between these two opposing and powerful forces. The logic behind the selection of these two animals is that a tiger and a dragon play an important role in China’s martial arts discipline, depicting the rivalry between the two. The dragon is offensive in nature, whereas the tiger is more defensive. The dragon is the celestial guardian of the east (azure dragon constellation in the east), whereas the white tiger is the celestial guardian of the west (white tiger constellation in the west). Dragons and tigers are traditional enemies. -232598
