HESTIA (Roman name Vesta) was the virgin goddess of the hearth (both private and municipal) and the home. As the goddess of the family hearth she also presided over the cooking of bread and the preparation of the family meal. Hestia was also the goddess of the sacrificial flame and received a share of every sacrifice to the gods. The cooking of the communal feast of sacrificial meat was naturally a part of her domain. This statue of Hestia is hand-painted with metallic gold paint to give it that extra accent. The statue stands 12 inches tall, is 4 1/2 inches wide and 3 1/2 inches deep. Made of cold cast resin, it has the look of marble, and shows incredible detail. Don't miss out on this awesome piece at a great price. Get yours now!

This Hestia figurine is just beautiful. I have ordered several other statues from this company and I have never been disappointed, but this one has got to be one of the most beautiful. It is difficult to find a figure of the Greek Goddess Hestia, since her presence in the ancient home was seen more as the 'spirit' of the dwelling and the hearth. However this figurine is one that I can place on my own kitchen alter and feel the same protective spirit that must have lived in ancient Greek households so many years ago. It is a truly beautiful piece.

Beautiful!
The statue is beautiful and is a most welcome edition to my altar. It is flowing and the golden flame and gold trim is so delicate. A well worth it purchase.
