Dionysus Brooch
Male? Female? Hermaphrodite? Therein lies the puzzlement. Was she a she, or a he, or even perhaps both? In the image you are all about to see, Dionysus was referred to and depicted as the goddess of grapes, wine, and ecstasy. She was often shown, as she is today, with grapes and grape vines in her hair. This brooch is hand painted with 24 karat gold paint, in browns and lavenders and greens and purples. She is made of porcelain which is pure white, not counting the painted highlights. Her size, which, in my opinion is a tad large as well as ridiculous for a brooch, is fifteen inches, presumably in height since they don't say. The type or era is Vintage. The material, as aforementioned, is porcelain. So why a woman when we all know she's a man? In those times, the public dance consisted of cross-dressing, with women wearing masks of Dionysus and invoking his name while squeezing out the wine in the presses or pouring the tasty liquid out into jars.
