DESCRIPTION

Owl, the famous symbol of wisdom. Ancient Greeks were calling it "glaucus" - meaning open blue color- because of owl's shining and sparkling eyes. In ancient times, owl was connected with wisdom, traditionally representing or accompanying Goddess Athena (Minerva in Roman). As the ancient Greek grammarian Hesychius of Alexandria informs us, an owl was observed on the sky before battle of Salamis, a precursor to the Greek victory! This is only a simple example highlighting the strong symbolism attached to this bird by ancient Greeks. This is a very elegant handmade owl candle figure made by top quality wax and finished, always by hand, with a reddish patina to take a wood effect! It contains a candle wick so you may light it, but it can simply work as a beautiful décor item for your home or office!
