Crystal Palace Dragon and Griffin

Dragon and griffin in a Crystal Palace antique/vintage shop window (in Church Road). Fine 'lifesize' specimens - well who knows what size the real ones are? Apparently these were originally part of the Lightopia installation in Crystal Palace Park but were left behind when the company went bust in January 2023.

There's a house on Kirkdale in Sydenham which has a bunch of mushrooms in their front-garden that look similarly Lightopia-esque (although my kids reckon not) and I always wondered how they'd got them. The company going bankrupt possibly explains it
