Labrys - double sided axe Goddess witch sterling silver vintage pendant

I have this beautiful and very detailed starlight silver Labrys pendant from a Witchy vintage collection.

Labrys or a double sided axe is a symbol of Female Warrior, Goddess - it was associated with Demeter and Labria, thunder and because of that - with God Zeus.

In ancient Minoan civilisation it was used as a symbol of the Mother Goddess and was representative of authority.

It was also seen as symbolic of a butterfly, signifying transformation and rebirth.

This double axe was depicted mostly in the hands of women and came to be connected with the male gods long after the decline of Minoan civilization.

In modern times labrys has been adopted as a proud symbol of LGBT+ community.

The size of the pendant is 5 x 3 cm
