The dragon is a popular pattern used in Japanese Kimono and Yukata robes. Dragons have been revered in Japan for over one thousand years and were considered to be ancestors of the first Emperor of Japan. These mythical creatures were commonly associated with bodies of water.<\/p>\n

The Japanese dragon has three claws versus the Chinese version which has four or five. Dragons are believed to control fire, rain and the earth. Variations in history featured dragons in water, among the clouds and sky or nestled in forests surrounded by the majestic Japanese\u00a0 Tsuri pine trees. Sometimes referred to as Tatsu which translates to ‘sign of the dragon.’<\/p>\n

Dragons are considered to represent wisdom, power and success which in turn produces luck, fortune and most importantly strength.
