Hello Brittany, Thank you for choosing Mearto for your online appraisal. Based on the images you provided and information, this item is: A Chinese lacquered Gold Wooden Dragon Statue. They traditionally symbolize potent and auspicious powers, particularly control over water, rainfall, typhoons, and floods. The dragon is also a symbol of power, strength, and good luck for people who are worthy of it in East Asian culture. No marks or signature, and based on its lack of details this item belongs to late 20th century as these were mostly mass produced for collectors. Good condition Retail prices may vary
