Black Pennsylvania retailer Dutch Hex Painting 8" x 6" (20 x 15 cm)

This beautiful Black & Gold Hex motif from the Pennsylvania Dutch/German folk art tradition brings spiritual protection, wards off enemies & brings good fortune. Designs of this kind are decorated throughout Pennsylvania Dutch country on barns, storage houses, homes, carriages, & on just about everything. They have their roots in medieval cathedrals in the form of stained glass windows, & tracery, they can be seen on old English woodwork & old German fraktur manuscripts.

In this eclectic art piece, I affixed a retailer beautiful Japanese Yuzen Chiyogami paper in black, gold, red, blue & green circle motif onto a gold flower printed handmade Nepalese paper. I then painted a dark gray circle & six pointed star using the same colors as the Chiyogami paper.

Use this in your house as a protection, place it on your altar, hang in a room, a yoga studio or even in an office to bring success into your life.

• Painting measures 6"x8", the image area measures 6" x 4" perfect for framing. Signed on the back.
