Red Soapstone Carved Box with Pentacle
£16.35
A fabulous box, made of hand-carved red soapstone, with a central pentacle motif surrounded with flowers and a fancy border. The sides are also decorated with floral carvings.
The internal measurements of the box are 135mm (13.5cm or 5 and 1/4 inches) by 85mm (8.5cm or 3 and 1/4 inches).
The external measurements are 150mm (15cm or 6 inches) by 100mm (10cm or 4 inches).
The Pentacle contains many layers of symbolism. The five points symbolize the four directions with the fifth point as the sanctity of spirit. The circle around the star symbolizes unity and wholeness. Similar to other figures which are made of a single unbroken line, this symbol is used to mark off magical enclosures or ritual areas, especially when used for invocation of deities or spirit.
