Lion Head (medium)

Description

Lion Head (medium)

Regarded as the king of beasts the lion is a solar symbol and a sign of power and leadership. In its zodiacal aspect of Leo its ruler is the sun, and its element fire. The sign is associated with warmth, generosity, creativity, courage, and leadership, although it can also be egotistical, proud, and autocratic. As a symbol of strength and untamed wildness the lion has been regarded as both a friend and an enemy to humans throughout history.

This superbly detailed Lion Head is part of our Cotswold Collection; finely crafted ornaments suitable for both indoors and outdoors.
