Product Overview
Libra, the only sign symbolised by an object, gives this small wooden keepsake box its enamelled theme. At 10 x 10 x 6cm it holds rings, earrings, a few tumbled stones or the odd ticket stub, and it takes up little more room on a dressing table than a coaster. Each box is handmade in India, so the enamel work varies slightly from piece to piece.
The lid shows the scales in gold line on an ivory enamel disc, ringed by small constellation drawings and set into a navy enamel ground flecked with gold. The lid is hinged and closes with a small metal clasp at the front.
The Story Behind the Design
Libra is the only sign drawn as an object rather than a living figure. Its stars were once counted as the claws of the neighbouring Scorpion before the Romans gave them a constellation of their own. Libra runs from roughly 23 September to 22 October (the exact changeover shifts by a day in some years). It is a cardinal air sign, symbolised by the Scales and traditionally ruled by Venus.
