Brigid, the Irish Goddess and a perfect addition to your Imbolc altar. She is cast in the finest resin before being given a bronze finish and painstakingly hand-painted. Standing in front of a fireplace, this elegant woman wears a long, flowing green dress, a triskelion on her belt. Her hair hangs down over her shoulders, and in her hands she holds a large red flame.
In front of her is a cauldron full of some unknown potion, simmering on a fire, and to her side is a stack of leather-bound books. A plaque at the front simply reads 'Brigid' - the Irish Goddess of poetry, fertility and healing. Perfect as the centrepiece of any pagan altar, this Celtic figurine is also a fantastic gift for any poet in need of divine inspiration.
A beautiful Nemesis Now product.
Brigid - The Irish Goddess Statue
Crystals come in different shapes and sizes, and some are small enough to be considered a choking hazard and therefore unsuitable for children under 3.
Children should always be supervised by an adult when playing with or handling crystals, as they are not your traditional “toy” and do require extra caution. For example, some may be toxic, whether touched, ingested, inhaling dust particles or when mixed with water. Others can be sharp in raw form, or when shattered or broken - some can be razor sharp.
When buying for children, ensure you have carried out your own research and that you understand which crystals are the most suitable.
A list of resources can be found below that will help you to decide. A good start is to look for 'health risks' sections and 'hardness' which are extremely useful.
