Product Description
This box is decorated with a Sign of the Fish or Jesus Fish symbols on top and has a hand carved design on the sides. This box is wonderful as a standalone gift but would also make any jewelry present even more special. Ichthys (more commonly spelt Ichthus, or sometimes Ikhthus, from Greek: ?????, capitalized ????? or ????C) is the ancient and classical Greek word for "fish". In English it refers to a symbol consisting of two intersecting arcs, the ends of the right side extending beyond the meeting point so as to resemble the profile of a fish, used by Early Christians as a secret symbol[1] and now known colloquially as the "sign of the fish" or the "Jesus fish." Fish are mentioned and given symbolic meaning several times in the Gospels. Several of Jesus' twelve disciples were fishermen. He commissions them with the words "I will make you fishers of men". About EWOB: Enchanted World of Boxes was founded by two Bohemians who were dreaming how they can make the world a better place. Teresa Witkowska was an artist, freshly graduated from the Academy of Fine Art in Krakow. Chris Kowalski, her husband, was an everlasting student trying to uncover the secrets of the universe in various academic disciples and at different universities. In 1989, when the company was founded, Teresa was painting beautiful oils on canvas and Chris was PhD student at the Department of Anthropology at Harvard. And one day, after many tries, they discovered the existence of a parallel universe, where hard work and a lot of creativity can actually pay the bills and make other people happy. This parallel universe was called Enchanted World of Boxes.
