Raven - Inuit, Edgar Allan Poe, - Art Tile

Description

I created this stoneware tile to celebrate the Raven .  In Norse mythology the god Odin had two Ravens, Huginn and Muninn - "Thought" and "Memory". They flew across the land every morning and returned each evening bringing him news of the world of men.
To the Inuit and indigenous peoples of the Pacific Northwest coast, the Raven is a magical creature who can take on the form of humans, animals, and even objects.  He is a trickster and keeper of secrets.  Some stories tell how he created the world, the moon, and stars, and the first man.
And of course the raven is immortalized in Edgar Allan Poe's poem "The Raven" with his sad lament "never more".
Like all of my tiles, it is made of stoneware clay pressed into my own hand carved molds. It measures about 4.25 inches square and is about 3/8 of an inch thick.    This tile is hand painted with my frosty white glaze.  All of my tiles are frost proof and safe for outdoor applications.
There is Free Shipping when you spend .00 or more on your order.
