Beautifully and intricately detailed, this Black Water Siren Studio exclusive represents the Erzulie Dantor voodoo veve. The veve is hand carved, then cast in solid precious metal. A ring band is securely soldered on in your requested size, oxidized to bring out the detail, and polished to a high shine. The face of the ring is about 1-1/8″ at it’s widest point, from the tip of the sword to the tip of the hilt, by 1-1/8″ tall.
In the Voodoo Pantheon, there is an important group of female lwa (goddesses) whose first name is Erzulie. While all of them share in their role as Goddess of love, art, and sex, each has additional areas of life which is theirs to defend and assist.
Erzulie Dantor is a mulatto woman who is often portrayed as the Black Madonna, or the Roman Catholic “Saint Barbara Africana”. She has scars on her cheek, and is considered heterosexual because she has children, but she is also the patron lwa of lesbian women. Thus, she loves women fiercely, and will defend them to the death.
She loves knives and is considered the protector of newly consecrated Voodoo priests and priestesses, as well as of women and children who are victims of domestic violence, and women who have been betrayed by a lover. She is highly respected and much feared due to her Woman Power. Most Haitian women serve Dantor, as do many men who honor and respect women.
Erzulie Dantor is also the patron lwa of New Orleans and so she is served by many there as well. She supports independent business women and is the patron of women’s finances.
Many women invoke Erzulie Dantor against their partners (male or female) should they become violent. And enlightened men also serve Dantor, especially men who honor, love and respect women.
