Drago Imperiale

Drago Imperiale

One-of-a-kind. Handmade. Gold embellished.

Drago Imperiale is a one-of-a-kind handmade ceramic bowl measuring 12.5 × 12.5 × 2.5 inches. The design combines Asian and Italian decorative influences, centering on a powerful dragon medallion surrounded by radiating bands of geometric pattern, stylized ornament, and dark textured surfaces. The repeated circular structure gives the bowl a formal, architectural quality while the dragon introduces a strong sense of symbolism, movement, and authority.

Deep black, muted blue-gray, burnt orange, ochre, and earthen tones create an aged, historic surface, while luminous gold embellishments define the concentric bands and elevate the central imagery. The result blends the visual language of East Asian dragon iconography with the layered ornament and compositional discipline associated with historic Italian ceramics.

Created entirely by hand, Drago Imperiale is a singular ceramic work that merges two decorative traditions into a richly detailed collectible object.
