This 150mm tall statue beautifully depicts Hecate, the Greek goddess of magic, witchcraft, crossroads, and necromancy, in her triune form. The goddess is represented by three figures standing back-to-back, symbolizing her dominion over the past, present, and future, as well as her presence at the three-way crossroads.

 

 

Each of Hecate's aspects holds a torch aloft, a classic attribute that signifies her role as a bringer of light to the darkness, illuminating paths and revealing hidden knowledge. At her feet are two loyal hounds, sacred animals associated with Hecate that often accompanied her and were believed to consume the offerings left at crossroads.

 

 

The statue is available in a lustrous gold or a rich bronze finish, both of which enhance the intricate details of the figures' drapery, the delicate flames of the torches, and the textures of the hounds. A crescent moon adorns the back of the central figure, further emphasizing Hecate's connection to the night, lunar cycles, and her epithet as "Queen of the Night." The base of the statue is round, providing a stable foundation and completing this elegant representation of the powerful goddess
