Mage Owl Wintermoss of Mooncloud

I.LOVE.THIS.OWL.

I almost didn't sell this one, because of how much I love the moss agate, the cut away tree, ALL OF IT!!!

As you can see from the photos, the light will shine thru the body moss agate stone, where I have sawn away the silver! 

Owl is almost 3' long, the owl face is hand sculpted from low fire ceramic, with lost of added sterling silver details for character. She comes on a textured sterling silver chain adjustable from 21" to 25" long.

Mythology relates owls to wisdom and femininity.  The owl was a symbol for Athena, goddess of wisdom and strategy, before the Greeks gave their pantheon human forms.  According to myth, an owl sat on Athena’s blind side, so that she could see the whole truth.  In Ancient Greece, the owl was a symbol of a higher wisdom, and it was also a guardian of the Acropolis.  Diana, the Roman response to Athena, was strongly associated with the moon, and also the owl.  The Pawnee and the Sioux saw the owl as a messenger (akicita) to the first of all evil creatures (Unktehi).  While the Lakota tribe had an “Owl Society,” where the warriors fought primarily at night and painted dark rings around their eyes because they believed that would allow them to have an owl’s acute vision.
