Get to know the dragon! The Chinese New Year 2024 begins on 10 February and ushers in the Year of the Dragon, the fifth symbol of the Chinese zodiac. The dragon is a special sign because it is the only imaginary animal in the Chinese calendar. There are actually five dragons: Metal, Earth, Fire, Water and Wood. At Ugears, we are particularly excited that 2024 is the year of the Wood Dragon, an event that only occurs every sixty years! Dragons are considered energetic, creative, diplomatic and born leaders. As wood dragons are associated with a living element, they are capable of significant growth, resulting in a rich abundance of all dragon qualities.

As a symbol of the emperor and the power of the empire, dragon statues could be found in China almost 8000 years ago. Unlike European dragons, which are seen as fearsome monsters to be fought, Chinese dragons are associated with prosperity and good fortune. They are often depicted with a flaming pearl between their teeth or in their claws, a symbol of universal Qi, the source of all energy and creation. In addition, the pearl symbolises wisdom, spiritual power and immortality. Because of these favourable and sought-after qualities, more children are born under the sign of the dragon than under the other signs in countries that follow the Chinese calendar!

The wooden dragon from Ugears is a 3D puzzle box and a DIY model of an auspicious dragon with a glowing red pearl in its left claw. The long, sinuous wooden dragon with four limbs, based on the style of dragon depictions in Chinese art, sits on a special stand with a hidden drawer that pops open as soon as the secret button in the shape of a flower is pressed (the drawer is closed by hand). The dragon can be removed from the stand and placed on a surface to admire it in detail. Hide a secret message, something valuable or a small treasure in the stand of the wooden dragon. You can also place a special red envelope (known as 紅包 or hóngbāo) with a gift for the Lunar New Year in the drawer and then hand over the wooden dragon with both hands and ask the recipient to open the treasure box!

The wooden dragon from Ugears is a very special model for 2024 - the year of the wooden dragon. Like all Ugears models, it is made of high-quality plywood. You don't need any glue or special tools to build this lucky charm model - all you have to do is press the parts out of the panels, into which they are pre-cut with a precision laser, and then assemble them. Follow the detailed instructions with colour pictures, which are available in 11 languages (Ukrainian, Chinese and Korean, English, German, French, Polish, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese and Italian). If a part breaks during assembly, simply send an e-mail to our customer service team. The model also includes a metal spring for the drawer mechanism, a red transparent glass ball and a piece of sandpaper and wax for smoothing and lubricating the moving parts to ensure they function optimally. The wooden dragon from Ugears has an "Easy" difficulty level and can be assembled in around 2 hours with its 141 parts. Together with the European-style storm kite, it forms the Ugears kite collection. Build both models and compare how this legendary monster is depicted in the two cultures.

Make a very special gift for Chinese New Year 2024 with the wooden dragon from Ugears, either as a model kit or as a model of the elegant wooden dragon that you have already completed, perhaps even with a hóngbāo as an extra New Year gift in the drawer!
