The phoenix is a mythological creature sacred within a wide range of cultures throughout the world, including the traditions of the Persians, Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, Chinese, and Indians.

The most common tradition of the Phoenix is that it builds a nest for itself and ignites, burning both itself and the nest to ash.

From this the Phoenix is reborn young, and places its ashes in an egg made of myrrh.

Here the sacred phoenix has been brilliantly brought to life in the form of a statue from the designs of Tom Wood.

Shown rising from its flaming nest, a creature of magic and flame, the piece is hand painted and sculpted of translucent resin so that the light within your home or sacred space gives it an almost luminescent quality.

Keep it within your home or upon your altar to celebrate the rebirth and renewal that are part of the immortal cycle of life.

This statue measures 9 1/2 inches wide and 7 1/2 inches tall.
