Les animaux dans la mythologie Grecque

Animals in Greek mythology

Men, gods... and animals! Greek mythology is full of all kinds of beasts and fantastic creatures.

The animal is therefore omnipresent in Greek civilization among the men of the cities: dog, lion, snake, mermaid, fish, ox... In myths and rituals, it also occupies a central place.

The animal is either the companion of the gods/goddesses, or the attribute of the gods/goddesses, embodying part of their power and identity: the eagle of Zeus, the doe of Artemis, the owl and the serpent of Athena.

I was inspired by two emblematic animals for this collection:
the Lion and the Serpent.

The Serpent - Serpentine, Ekhis, and Caduceus Rings
The serpent is the emblem of ancient Greece. It is often found on mourning and sentimental jewelry. Among the Greeks, the serpent symbolizes the guardian spirit. It is also present on many altars.
It is for the protective aspect of the snake that I have declined these 3 models, hoping that this guardian spirit will protect those who wear one of these rings.
The snake is also a symbol of renewal.

The Ekhis and Caduceus rings are represented by a double serpent, often depicted in Greek mythology, the serpent with two heads, one on each end of its body.

The second animal that I represent in my collections is the Lion .


The Lion - Cybele Ring


It represents strength and power.
It's an animal that I particularly like, perhaps because it's also my husband's astrological sign.
We often find this animal in Greek mythology and it is especially known for the representation of Chimera, represented as a mixture of various animals: its lion's head, its goat's body and its snake's tail.
The Cybele ring is inspired by this creature.

I plan to include other animals in my next collections so if you like animals and history, follow me...
