Caryatid, Eleusi type

The figure of the Caryatid reminds of the young women whose task was bringing gifts during a sacred ceremony or sacrifices.
The figure of the Caryatid was often used as architectural piece, most likely as a column given the shape of their body and arms.
This specific Caryatid coming from the Torlonia collection, wears long drapes adorned with a Medusa shaped medallion on the chest. The sculpture was built to adorrn an architectural complex built around 50 AC.
I make the figures with marble, a resistant material, which allows the figure to be exposed even outdoors and look even more beautiful over the years.

The statue helps people calm down, not impatient, not hasty. It reminds us there are many difficulties and sadness outside but if we just think about all the goodness, just smile and you will feel the life much easier.

Our figures are made by hand using high quality natural marble stone therefor each piece is unique and may slightly be different in shape and color.

★ Gift idea for your friends and family, for those who are struggling, tired, depressed.
