Circe Invidiosa by John William Waterhouse Ceramic Ornament
Circe Invidiosa (1892) by JW Waterhouse is a vintage Victorian Pre-Raphaelite fine art mythological portrait painting. A beautiful young woman is holding a vessel with water that is spilling out like a waterfall into the ocean by the seashore. In mythology, Circe is a minor goddess of magic (nymph, witch, enchantress or sorceress) living on the island of Aeaea, famous for her part in the adventures of Odysseus in Homer's Odyssey.
Circe was the daughter of Helios (or Helius), the god of the sun, and Perse, an Oceanid and the sister of Aeetes, the keeper of the Golden Fleece and of Pasiphaë, the mother of the Minotaur. Other accounts make her the daughter of Hecate.
Circe transformed her enemies, or those who offended her, into animals through the use of magical potions. She was renowned for her knowledge of drugs and herbs.

I love the symbolism in this piece! The olive branches and flowers reminding us of Gethsemane and the joy of the resurrection. The candle reminding us of Christ's light and love. I've dropped it a few times already and it has held together nicely. Couldn't be more pleased with this product! Would definitely buy again. The printing was as expected on the front. Clear colors. The back where the artist put her brand name was a bit faded, but still readable.

Zazzle has created a beautiful pet memorial perfect for our Christmas tree for years and years to come. We lost these two pets during this year which makes these ornaments even more social. I recommend this item to anyone who has lost a four-legged friend. Zazzle did an excellent job centering the uploaded photos, clearing the decorative items and string hole.

A quality, durable ornament. Fun to find the Glockenspiel photo online. Adding the cymbals and snare drum on the back brings back memories of my Marching days in school. Fun to design and another ornament to the tree of instruments I can play. The printing is crisp and bright. I am continuing each year to add ornaments of instruments I can play to a small tree I will leave up all year.
