Product Overview
This Gemini mini bowl has two jobs, which suits the sign of the Twins: an incense stick holder one evening, a ring dish the next. The stick stands upright in a centre hole and the 10cm dish catches the ash. It is made in India, weighs 100g and measures 10 x 10 x 2.5cm, small enough to tuck into a gift hamper.
The round dish is dark-grained mango wood. The centre shows the twins in gold line on an ivory enamel disc, ringed by constellation drawings inside a navy band flecked with gold. It is the same artwork as our Gemini keepsake box, so the two make a matching pair.
The Story Behind the Design
Gemini's two brightest stars carry the names of the twins Castor and Pollux. In Greek myth Pollux shared his immortality with his brother so the pair would never be parted. Gemini runs from roughly 21 May to 20 June, an air sign traditionally ruled by Mercury.
