A small sphere designed to bring you pleasure.
The design of this Water bird comes from Greece in the 2nd Millennium BCE. She carries the Cosmic Egg, a universal myth linked to the Creation of our Universe. The Egg contained the earth, the seas, the sun and moon and the planets. The Ancient peoples believed water birds brought happiness, wealth and nourishment. The Moon is a symbol of becoming. The Snake and Spiral designs were carved on the walls of Paleolithic caves. (15,000 BCE) The flowing designs were believed to awaken dormant life force. I included the stars as symbols of hope and light.
The piece is 2.75 inches in diameter.
