About the Design:

This design is inspired by Palaeolithic Venus figurines which date back to 35,000-10,000 B.C. These statues were thought to be cult images, acting as guardians for daily life, death, and rebirth of the people. The figurines typically depict an abundant woman, likely pregnant. They celebrate the mysterious power to create and sustain life from one's self. It is a reminder of the tremendous creative potential that lives within all of us and within the earth herself.
