OWLS OF WISDOM - SET OF 4

The Owls of Wisdom Gift Box contains:

✻4 Owl Miniature Statues

In Greek mythology, a little owl (Athene noctua) traditionally represents Athena, the virgin goddess of wisdom. The owl has been used as a symbol of knowledge, wisdom, perspicacity and erudition throughout the Western world. The 19th-century idealist philosopher Hegel famously noted that "the owl of Minerva (Athena) spreads its wings only with the falling of the dusk"—meaning that philosophy comes to understand a historical condition just as it passes away. Made from alabaster the owls in this gift box will be there to inspire you or your loved ones while you study and decorate your shelf with Greek aesthetics. This gift box comes with 4 handmade and handpainted owl statues, each one in its own craft mini box so that you can gift them right away.

✻Greek Lucky Eye Bracelet

In Greece there is a belief that Matiasma will cause misfortune or injury. Matiasma means “evil eye” in Greek, and is often shortened to mati which means “eye”. The classic Greek “lucky eye” symbol charm aims to ward off the effects of the Matiasma. Blue charms shaped like eyes worn on a necklace or a bracelet “reflect” the evil. The lucky eye is the most commonly talked about ancient tradition in the Greek Isles. Celebrate Greek culture with a Greek lucky eye bracelet in the blue and white colours of the Greek flag.
