Scarab's Retreat - Lead Glass Crystal - 2004
H - 65 mm x W - 45 mm

Scarab's Retreat, a simple yet classic work.

The family of beetles known as Scarabaeidae live all over the planet.
In ancient Egyptian lore the scarab-beetle god "Khepera" was believed to push the setting sun along the sky in the same manner as the beetle with his ball of dung.
Therefore they were worshipped as "Khepera", which means "he came forth." This creative aspect of the scarab was associated with the creator god Atum.
