Daughter of Thaumas and Electra, she travels between Mount Olympus and the mortal world on wings of iridescent light, carrying the will of the gods to humanity. This hand-carved Iris statue captures her graceful, radiant presence in ecological ash wood, finished with a warm varnish that brings out the natural depth of the grain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach piece is individually hand-carved — no two are identical.
