Cernunnos and Animals 23cm

Description

From alternative brand Nemesis Now’s giftware collection, this magnificent figurine is cast in the finest resin before being given a bronze finish and painstakingly hand-painted. Sitting on a tree stump, surrounded by animals, sits Cernunnos, the Horned God of the forest from the myths of the Celts. Over crossed shaggy goat legs, a red loincloth is held in place with a golden belt. A large triskelion sits on the belt buckle, intertwining spirals swirling clockwise. His muscular torso is exposed and hairy, and a long cloak hangs down his back. Looking forwards with an air of wisdom, his majestic antlers emerge from beneath his long hair. In this left hand, he holds a red snake by its head, and in his right he holds a large bronze torc, symbolizing power and riches. Around his feet, a snake, a faun and a bear cub all frolic. Perfect for the modern pagan, this fantastic Celtic figurine is the perfect centrepiece for any alter or coffee table.
