Aphrodite Epitymbidia Altar Box (She Upon the Grave)

This vintage altar box honors Aphrodite Epitymbidia, She Upon the Grave.

Likewise, she brought comfort to the mourner in the graveyard when they went to visit those who passed. We offer this altar box to all who need her comfort in these trying times. All offerings fit securely in the ceramic altar box, which appears reminiscent to a coffin decorated with flowers. A rose motif is visible across the entire box, while the top appears as if flowers were just laid on top of it. It includes a golden floral closure. As all components are able to fit inside this box, it is a perfect fit for folx still in the broom closet who may need to tuck their altars away from time to time, and those who have limited space available to them.This altar box contains the following offerings:- 1 bust of Aphrodite, made in bonded charcoal with golden details imbe
