On the occasion of the current exhibition “Chaeronea, August 2, 338 BC: A day that changed the world” and the bead worn as a talisman by one of the Macedonian warriors who fell in battle, the Cycladic Shop is inspired by different traditions and presents the new series of Cycladic Protection items, a collection of special gifts with powerful symbolism. Among them, the charms of the Museum of Cycladic Art for 2024: The “Gate of Prosperity”, a jewel inspired by the gates of ancient Greek houses decorated with Grypes, mythical beings of ancient civilizations, protectors of treasures, especially gold, which associated with home prosperity, protection and happiness.
