Horus Statue - Patron god of Egypt - 12 Inches tall
$
29.99
Often viewed as the patron god of Egypt, Horus is widely recognized as one of the eldest and most revered of the Egyptian gods. Indeed, in the days of Ancient Egypt the Pharaoh was believed to be Horus in life much as he was believed to be Osiris in death, with each new Pharaoh merely being a new incarnation of Horus; a concept that had overtaken the earlier belief that the Pharaoh was the son of Ra. As the conqueror of Seth, the god of war and hunting, and the protector of Egypt, his symbol, the Eye of Horus, became a symbol of protection and power, helping to ward off evil.
Taking the form of the traditional image of Horus, this statue celebrates the patron deity as he was known to the Ancient Egyptians. With the head of a falcon crowned in rulership of all of Egypt, he is posed as one might see him portrayed in ancient hieroglyphs: one foot slightly forward with his forward hand holding the carrying the traditional staff and his relaxed arm carrying the ankh. The whole piece stands approximately 12" tall, 2 3/4" wide, and 4" deep and has been painted in rich tones of gold and black.

$
39.99

Measuring approximately 7 1/2" in length and 5" wide and 5 1/2" high, it can easily fit upon a desk or book shelf, as well as an altar. Use it to decorate your sacred space and lend to it the ancient feel of the laboratory and study of the alchemists, scientists, and occultists of old.

Warrior Seth Statue (Set) - Egyptian - Lord of Chaos
$
39.99
Seth (also found spelled as Set) is the ancient Egyptian god of the desert, storms, darkness and Chaos. Indeed, in ancient Egyptian culture his very name meant to be an instigator of confusion, a deserter, or a drunkard. He was known for his conflict with Osiris, whom he attacked out of jealousy and envy, dismembering Osiris and throwing his pieces into the Nile. This conflict also brought about his contention with Horus, who was the son of Osiris and Isis.
Here he is portrayed with jet-black skin, as are many of the deities of ancient Egypt, with the body of a man and the head of a beast. Known often simply as the "Set animal," the beast is a blend of the donkey, a jackal, and an aardvark. His golden attire lends to the impression that he is girded for war, while the sickle and crook in his hands leave little doubt that he is intended to sew strife.
Standing 10" tall, this statue is sculpted of cold cast resin and is perfectly suited for any altar of worship.

Standing with her hand on her hip, her skin is jet black in contrast to the gold of her clothing, and the feline eyes that rest beneath two feline ears.

$
100.00
A beautiful recreation of a marble statue found upon the island of Delos, in Greece, this statue portrays the Greek gods Pan and Aphrodite in an exchange that wonderfully illustrates the nature of both God and Goddess.

The statue, as the original, is a beautiful expression of all of these qualities, and is certain to stir your heart. It stands 11 1/2" in height, and 6" wide at its widest point. Sculpted of cold cast resin, it has been hand painted so as to appear to have been cast of copper or bronze.
