    About

    The following information is a very brief excerpt from my full article HERE, where you can learn more about the symbolism, backstory, research, historical inspirations, and blending of East and West.

    Lumecluster was created to inspire and armor those who fight the good fight and build bridges together.

    As an American born Chinese, I created the "Descendants of the Dragon Armor Ring" as a nod to my Chinese heritage, to honor my best friends who are the biggest heroes and fighters in my life, and to call on people to find their inner dragon (and the good dragon within others) to build stronger bridges together.

    Unlike western culture mythology where the dragon is usually seen as a malevolent creature that needs to be slain, Chinese dragons are very auspicious figures that help humankind and much more. And as benevolent creatures, it’s no surprise people aspired to be like the dragon, or exceptional people would be compared to the dragon.

    I hope that when you wear this or gift this to others, you see the powerful dragon within yourself or find the dragon within those that empower you most in your life.

    Descendants of the Dragon are not here to be slain. So, they'll never take our claws from us ❤

    Sizing

    Please understand that the fit will vary since our hands are all very different. If you're looking for a perfect fit for your fingers, you will need to request custom made rings, which will be a different cost.

    When determining your size, keep in mind that your finger size can expand and shrink due to temperature change, eating certain foods, and doing certain activities with your hands. When it comes to temperature change, your fingers are typically bigger in the morning or when you're hot. On the other hand, your fingers shrink when you are cold. So be sure to measure your ring size in a few situations to help you pick your size.

    EXAMPLE: My index finger is usually a "US 6." But when it's cold, my index finger can drop to a "US 5." And when it's hot or my fingers are swollen my index finger can go up to a "US 7." I prefer a US 7 because it gives me just a little more room to flex my finger joints (in the 3-part and 2-part armor rings), and I'd rather tighten it to a smaller size rather than expand the ring bands too much.

    Adjustability Range
    US 3 US 2-4 adjustability
    US 5 US 4-6 adjustability
    US 7 US 6-8 adjustability
