Cimaruta Pentacle Wood Finish Plaque by Paul Borda Celtic & Mythological Art
The symbolism of the Cimaruta, which means "sprig of rue", can be traced back to the pre-Roman Etruscan period. Originally a charm to protect against enchantments, over time it has become a symbol of the old religion in Italy. The enlargement of a single vervain blossom is associated with the fairy race. The rooster dispels darkness and heralds the dawn. The knife, Diana's dart, represents enlightenment as a ray of moonlight. The serpent represents the goddess Prosperpina, the moon Diana herself and the key is symbolic of Hecate.
Measures 7 x 7 x 1 3/4 inches. Lovely sculpture by artist Paul Borda is cast in resin and hand finished in a wood finish.

Materials |
Cast Resin |
Resin is a polymer which can be used for making molds as well as cast in molds. Cold-cast resin is generally for sculpture and means that the resin material is cast without the need for the extreme heat of a foundry. It holds very sharp detail when cast. Most of the major lines of figurines on the market today are made of cold cast resin. It is fragile if dropped and fractures similar to glass, usually in clean pieces which can be glued using a household super glue. |
Hand Painted Detail |
Color details are hand painted. Please expect slight variations - each is unique. |
