A supersized version of my Metamorphoses jewellery design, the perfect adornment for any bibliophile’s Christmas tree this year. The decoration is designed to look like a copy of Ovid’s Metamorphoses, open to the first lines: they’re in the original Latin on the left hand side, and my translation into English on the right!
Made from shiny green mirrored acrylic to evoke the countryside and woodland locations that feature so prominently in the stories of the Metamorphoses. With pearlescent acrylic to mimic the pages of a book and a bookmark made from marble red acrylic.
This ornament is tied with a green velvet ribbon, ready for hanging from your tree.
Limited edition of 23 pieces.
Handmade in Scotland as part of the Plato’s Fire Ancient Epics collection.
