Qing Dynasty, Chinese Mythology Silk Embroidery Gold Dragon Antique Mandarin Square Folk Art Fine Taoist Art Print

Mandarin squares were worn by officials and scholars during the Qing Dynasty as a symbol of their rank and status. The Mandarin square is a rectangular piece of silk embroidery, typically featuring a central medallion with a depiction of a dragon or other auspicious symbol.

The gold dragon mythology design on the Mandarin square is typically created using a combination of silk and gold thread, with the dragon's body and scales rendered in intricate detail. The dragon is often shown in a dynamic and powerful pose, with its head raised and its tail curled, symbolizing its strength and authority. The background is usually filled with clouds, representing the dragon's ability to fly in the sky.
