Product Description
Our Orphic Eggs are tiny, self-contained dimensions of magic and wonder. Each one has something to be discovered, if you look closely enough. The line is inspired by the Orphic Egg of Greek legend, from which Phanes/Protogonus was born. It’s a curious snippet of universe in an eggshell.
Inside the protective shell walls, an intricately styled Thor’s Hammer charm rests. Also called Mjolnir, it is a charm traditionally carried by Slavic cultures, especially the Norse. It holds great weight as a symbol of consecration, ceremony, power, and protection. Between each narrow window into the interior is a positive word inscribed on the egg walls. They are translated from English into Old Norse, and then written in Futhark Runes. The words in English are: happiness, courage, receptivity, wisdom, flexibility, love, and peace.
