Bastet: The Original Cat Woman
Often depicted with the head of a cat and a slender female body, Bastet is the goddess of protection, pleasure, and good health. She embodies the nurturing yet fierce qualities that only a mother can possess.
Daughter of the sun god Ra, Bastet began as a lioness deity—wild and untamed. But as cats became domesticated, her image softened, transforming into that of a protective, motherly force.
Cats were sacred in ancient Egypt for their ability to eliminate crop-destroying vermin. Over time, they rose from cherished household companions to divine beings—honored, adorned, and worshipped as extensions of Bastet herself.
This claw-style hair clip pays tribute to her spirit. Crafted in glossy black resin with hand-painted gold, turquoise, and lapis details, it serves as both ornament and invocation.
Approximately 3 inches wide. Each piece is unique; subtle variations are to be expected—and cherished.
