Description

MINOAN DOLPHIN STATUE Throughout antiquity, the dolphin was closely associated with Aphrodite, goddess of love and beauty and with Poseidon, god of the sea. The dolphin is frequently represented in Minoan and ancient Greek art as a gentle and intelligent creature: a mammal which lives in the sea and therefore connects the human world with the elemental world of nature. Please be aware that, due to the fact that our products are either individually cast, carved, hand painted and hand finished, there will inevitably be minor variations in size, colour and texture.(B362-R) Details: Condition: New, Handmade in Greece Material: Casting stone Height: 17 cm(6.7 inches) Width : 22 cm(8.5 inches) Weight : 900 g
