Beautiful seal, dragon.
This is a Chinese seal (印章, yìnzhāng) with a dragon atop it — a classic symbol of imperial power and good fortune in Chinese culture.
The dragon encircles the "pearl of wisdom" - an important motif in Chinese iconography
Chinese characters: On the front are engraved calligraphic characters
Function: Traditionally seals were used to authenticate documents, artworks and correspondence — similar to a signature in the West
