They’re not just importers; they're curators of cultural experiences, and this year, they’re focusing on bringing the energy and symbolism of the Dragon Festival to life. What’s the Dragon Festival all about? For many, the Dragon Festival (also known as Duanwu Festival or Dragon Boat Festival) conjures up images of thrilling dragon boat races, sticky rice dumplings (zongzi), and a deep-rooted celebration of Chinese culture. But it’s more than just a spectacle. Originating over 2,000 years ago, the festival commemorates the patriotic poet Qu Yuan, a loyal minister who drowned himself in protest against corruption. His selfless act transformed into a cultural touchstone emphasizing patriotism, honor, and remembrance. Traditionally, the festival is celebrated on the 5th day of the 5th month of the Chinese lunar calendar. It's a time for families to gather, ward off bad luck, and celebrate good health. Decorations play a huge part – they aren’t just pretty, they're steeped in meaning. ANA Sourcing's Collection: More Than Just Decorations “We noticed a gap in the US market for genuinely authentic Dragon Festival decorations,” explains a representative from ANA Sourcing LLC. “A lot of what you see is mass-produced, lacking the artistry and cultural significance of the original designs. We wanted to change that.” ANA Sourcing LLC’s collection isn't about flimsy, disposable decorations. They’ve carefully sourced a range of items, focusing on quality materials and craftsmanship. Here’s a look at what they’re offering: Dragon Lanterns: These aren’t your average paper lanterns. ANA Sourcing has a selection of intricately designed dragon lanterns, ranging in size from tabletop displays to impressive hanging installations.

They offer both traditional red and gold lanterns, as well as unique color combinations. Dragon Banners & Flags: These vibrant banners aren't just for show. Traditionally, banners and flags were hung to ward off evil spirits and attract good fortune. ANA Sourcing’s banners feature classic dragon motifs, often accompanied by auspicious Chinese characters. They're perfect for decorating homes, businesses, or event spaces. They have options for indoor and outdoor use, made from weather-resistant materials. Dragon Boat Models: A miniature nod to the heart of the festival – the thrilling dragon boat races. These beautifully crafted models capture the spirit of competition and teamwork. They're available in various sizes and materials, from intricately carved wood to colorful painted resin. “They make fantastic collectibles or gifts for anyone interested in Chinese culture,” says the company.
