Handmade ceramic Labyrinth and moon phase dark altar shelf with Avalon inspired carvings

This handcrafted ceramic altar shelf is inspired by the mythic realm of Avalon—a place of mist, memory, and deep feminine wisdom. Shaped in a sacred arch and carved by hand, this altar is designed to hold your ritual tools, sacred objects, or offerings. It is especially suited for lunar ceremonies, seasonal rites, and threshold work during powerful turning points like the Summer Solstice.

Dimensions:
9.5” tall x 6.5” wide x 2” deep
Made with dark brown/black stoneware clay, carved and glazed with a soft oatmeal tone to reveal the symbols.

☽ Symbolism & Design Details:

• Labyrinth:
The classical seven-circuit labyrinth symbolizes the soul’s journey inward and outward—a path of transformation and return. It echoes the pilgrimage to Avalon itself, where the way forward requires inner knowing.

• Phases of the Moon:
Waxing to waning moons arc above, representing the sacred cycles of time, the rhythms of the body, and the Triple Goddess. These phases connect the altar to lunar priestess traditions, intuitive dreamwork, and seasonal rituals.

• Honeysuckle Vines (side carving):
Along the edge, a trail of hand-carved honeysuckle vines spirals upward—a symbol of sweetness, remembrance, and magnetic attraction. Honeysuckle has long been associated with love and the thinning of the veil, making it a powerful companion for threshold crossings and soul work.

This is the first in a new series of Avalon-inspired altar pieces, created as a devotional space for those called to remember the old ways, to tend sacred flame, and to honor the turning of the wheel.
