Aphrodite
Goddess of fertility, love and beauty. When Zeus killed his father he through his severed remains into the sea. The sea foamed and boiled and Aphrodite arose from the waters. As Aphrodite stepped from the ocean, flowers grew wherever her feet touched. Paphos, the place where Aphrodite supposedly rose from the water is her most important place of worship.
Aphrodite is clearly related to Ishtar and Astarte and very much loves the company of the male gods. While married to Hephaetus, she had many lovers, including Ares, Poseidon, Adonis, and Dionysus. Aphrodite is a complex, many faceted deity.
About Vicenza Gold by Tagliamonte
This unique collection from Vicenza (Venice) Italy is the result of five years of research which lead to the rediscovery of the ancient art of Venetian Cameo gems. Mr. Nino Tagliamonte, along with two Venetian artists, successfully experimented with original Roman blending, processing and casting methods to develop a formula allowing them to create Venetian Cameo gems identical to the antique originals. Available in a variety of colours and set with 14K and 18K gold, the gems are hand wrought with incandescent glass, and the exact colour is established only when cooled. These beautiful works of art rival the most breathtaking genuine gemstones!
