Wall Art, Custom, Made To Order

The Double Rosette design is a traditional "hex sign" design, thought to be the beginning of all hex signs, a slight variation of the Single Rosette pattern. This 'sign' is cut in stone set in the side of Old Greek Church in Athens / 1453. I have painted my mandala/star circle/hex in rainbow colors on a black background, which 'pops' the colors beautifully, added some graphics to the petals and bordered in metallic green and purple.
The single rosette was a talisman to keep away evil and/or bad luck so.......perhaps the double will double the protection, yes ?

This bright, gorgeous little rainbow, 12 inch diameter, is cut from 1/2 or 3/8 inch exterior plywood, carefully prepped and a minimum of 2 background coats on front and back. Each color also has a min. of 2 coats for colorfastness and durability. It is ready to hang with a sawtooth (self-leveling) hanger.

The Circle itself is a symbol of Unity, Perfection, the Absolute, in magical practices the circle is valued as an effective protection against evil.
In my research I found Hex Signs also referred to as "Star Circles" and I really loved the name so I adopted it !!

I also see my circles as "Mandalas" : A circular design containing concentric geometric forms, images of deities,. etc. symbolizing the universe, totality or wholeness in Hinduism and Buddhism. Mandalas are often used as a focal point for meditation.

The Hex Sign comes from , or is best known from the "Pennsylvania Dutch"~ german speaking groups; Lutheran, Reformed, Dutch Quakers, French Huguenots and others who settled in America in the 17th century. They tend to be associated with the Amish but , in fact, the Amish, Mennonites and other "Plain" Sects do not use the hex signs or much of any 'decoration. The geometric designs/ Hexes were painted on barns , furniture and many other objects. They were thought of as being powerful protection against evil spirits, as invoking blessings as well as adding beauty.

While this Circle is a traditional design, all my others ( unless noted) are my own design and creation, usually using elements and interpretations of multiple cultures and symbolisms. These 'New' Star Circles can be displayed and enjoyed indoors or outdoors as beautiful decor, and or talisman for protection, power, good fortune, good energy, feng shui.....for your home, garden, barn, studio, patio, etc. My sister has one on her chicken coop =-)
Each Circle is created with care , love, special symbolism and good energy. CUSTOM Circles are always available. You can have your own colors, astrological sign, personal symbols, anything with special meaning to you. I will design and create it for you or you can give me your own design.
