Pocket Dionysos Statue
Pocket Dionysos Statue
Our Pocket Dionysos Statue is a unique statue carved and casted by your local trickster spirits. The original design was hand-carved by us before being casted in genuine natural materials using the same process as most pagan statuary. The design features Dionysos in the center of a frame with a twining border, inspired by curling ivy. In his long, curling hair, ivy leaves and grapes are nestled at his temples. Over one shoulder lays the leopard pelt he is so often depicted with in ancient imagery.
He is currently available in the following materials:
- Bonded charcoal
- Bonded iron oxide
- Bonded copper carbonate
- Bonded atomized copper
- Golden: This is the only statue not made of natural materials. It's made with resin and colored with golden mica. Like folk magic practitioners before us, we work with the best materials available for the task at hand: this includes resin. Despite not being a natural material, we work with resin for its alchemical property of transformation. Under its own power, resin transforms itself from a liquid to solid state through heat it produces itself. We view this as an alchemical metamorphosis and prize this material for that purpose.
Each statue is hand-painted with black and gold to highlight his features. This statue measures 2x1.75x1 inches and can fit comfortably in a hand during meditation or a pocket while going about your day.
