Happy #October to all of you!
A detail of a #Roman mosaic found in Trier depicting the personification of the month of October.
Dating around 300 AD.
Have a lovely weekend!
As the nights start to draw in & there's a chill in the air, it's important to look after yourself & your mental health too - please reach out to your friends, as they'll probably be feeling it as well.
With Love

The amazing Fuller Brooch. A large Anglo-Saxon silver disc brooch of outstanding craftsmanship. Late AD 800s. Decorated with personifications of the five human senses. A central figure represents Sight, who is surrounded by Touch, Taste, Smell and Hearing. 📷 my own.

Something new for our little shop - Palo Santo incense sticks from South America!
Meaning "holy wood" its use in cleansing negative household energy dates back to Incan times. It can also be burned simply to enjoy its warm woody, sweet fragrance
