Another Dragon for Dragon Year 2012

I had forgotten all about this seal which I had purchased in Phnom  Penh some years back. So glad I rediscovered it in time for the lunar new year because it features a dragon made of quartz crystal.



 Although this is not a Chinese dragon but a Khmer dragon I still think it is appropriate for this Lunar New Year season. In Khmer mythology a dragon is known as Naga or Neak.



What a cool dragon or or should I say  dragoness.....is she the Princess dragon of Khmer mythology........?
