RED DRAGON SHOP ~ RON MUMMERT, FLORIDA
Ron has done his usual masterful job of coming up with a unique design - and his Red Dragon shop fills that description in spades. It works as a gift shop or perhaps a tea room - your choice! From the Lion statues standing guard as you enter the Oriental rock garden, passing the Temple Lantern to reach the entrance porch, you pass into a world of Asian beauty. The roof line consists of laser cut beams trimmed with dragons. Interior walls are laser cut panels, interspersed with panels that resemble silk wallpaper in a beautiful Chinese print. Each student receives 5 pieces of furniture, including a counter, chair, dragon chandelier on the balcony, and two different style cabinets - one open, one with doors.
