The Inspiration: This colourway captures the Scarlet Darter — a vivid, flame-winged dragonfly found skimming ponds and rivers across Asia, Africa, and Europe. The name Dragon's Gleam is drawn from the folklore of Japan, where dragonflies (tombo) are revered as symbols of courage, strength, and good fortune.
The Palette: A variegated blend of purple, blue, and red, speckled with red and dark blue — like the iridescent wings of a Scarlet Darter catching the light.
