#F07010 Greenman Tile

The Green Man, also known as Jack in the Green, Puck, and the Old Man of the Woods, is an archetypal symbol found all over Western Europe and in parts of Asia and North Africa. He is a potent ancient symbol with a universal appeal; a life force which wards off evil and speaks directly to our relationship with the natural world. Since 3000 BC he has been hiding in manuscripts and watching over us from the roofs, ceilings and entryways of great cathedrals. Perhaps this wondrous and mysterious being will help heal our polluted, overstressed world. We only need to stop and listen.

This greenman is press molded with an applied nose. He is part of my standard production so there will be some variation in the nose area. He is also available in a ochre glaze.

Size: 4 5/8" diameter X 1 5/8"

Price: $34.00 plus shipping and handling
