Description: Travel to an incredible world by creating famed figures from ancient tales.

A dragon, a phoenix, Pegasus, unicorns, and other fantastic creatures exist only in myths and legends—or do they? You can make our own beautifully detailed, intricately folded origami versions.

The flying fox appears to soar into the night sky, while a centaur stands proud and regal. There's a fabled sphinx, a spectacular dragon with wings extended, and a wild duck placidly floating along.

From a centaur to a hydra, these imaginative designs are perfect decorations for your home and on gifts.
