Serpentine Medusa Carving

A striking Medusa head, masterfully carved from a rich, deep green serpentine. The stone’s earthy depth and natural variations bring incredible movement to the piece, almost echoing the winding forms of her legendary serpents.
In Greek mythology, Medusa was one of the three Gorgons — a powerful and misunderstood figure whose gaze could turn onlookers to stone. Once a beautiful maiden, her story is one of transformation, resilience, and formidable strength. Today, she is often seen not only as a symbol of protection, but also of feminine power, defiance, and unapologetic sovereignty.
This carving measures approximately 9.5cm tall and 8cm wide, with a solid, grounding weight of 877g .
A wonderful addition to any collection being both  bold and commanding, embodying both ancient myth and enduring power.
