Deusa ex Machina collection: The Hecate earrings

The Hecate earrings are inspired by the Goddess of magic, crossroads, moon, ghosts, witchcraft and necromancy (the undead).

Regarding the nature of her cult, it has been remarked, "she is more at home on the fringes than in the centre of Greek polytheism. Intrinsically ambivalent and polymorphous, she straddles conventional boundaries and eludes definition."

Collection: Deusa ex Machina

Colour options: Each set is a one of a kind, unique colour combination. Each set is numbered in the order they were created (e.g. Hecate I, II etc).

About the collection:

The Deusa ex Machina collection is inspired by the female deities and Goddesses of Greek Mythology. Each design is inspired by and named after a Goddess. For example, with a little bit of imagination one can see the pommegranate in the design of the Persephone earring, and growth in the Demeter earring.

Each design is created with a one of a kind touch, meaning that the colour combos in adornments will not be repeated, thus each piece is numbered with Roman numerals in the order they were created.
