Charon’s Lantern Ear WeightsThese intricately designed ear weights were inspired by the myth of Charon. According to ancient Greek myths, Charon is the ferryman who navigates the rivers of the underworld and ferries the souls of the dead across… if they pay the toll of course. We imagine his skiff lit at the bow by a beautiful golden lantern, lighting his way through the dim and damp mist of the Rivers Styx and Acheron.Our signature floating hand hooks grasp stately 58 gram brass lanterns set with beautiful natural quartz crystals which symbolize its eternal flame.One will receive with their pair of weights one authentic ancient greek silver obol dating from between 450 BCE - 100 CE. To pay the ferryman, of course.www.omniaoddities.com -- source link
