Athene Noctua
$14.00
New from Nashville Needlework Market 2019, this design is from Ink Circles: 'Athene Noctua'.
"A. Noctua (also known officially as the 'little owl') is the original wise old owl, dating from its connection to the ancient Greek goddess Athena who represented wisdom and knowledge. She also happens to be the patron goddess of craft and weaving. My depiction of this little owl is taken from the antique Athenian silver coin, the tetradrachm. One side shows Athena and other, the owl with an olive branch. The letters stand for Athena." - Tracey Horner, Designer.
