About This Design

The Caduceus (Subdued) Fabric

The Caduceus (Subdued) Fabric

The caduceus: A short staff entwined by two serpents. As well as being carried by Hermes in Greek mythology. In Roman iconography it was often depicted being carried in the left hand of Mercury, the messenger of the gods, guide of the dead and protector of merchants, shepherds, gamblers, liars and thieves. By extension of it's association with Hermes/Mercury the caduceous has been a recognised symbol of commerce and negotiation, two realms in which balanced exchange and reciprocity are recognised as ideals. In modern times the caduceus has come to be used as a symbol of medicine and/or medical practice, especially in North America. However, this latter association is more a symptom of widespread confusion, with The Rod of Asclepius, which has only a single snake and no wings. This sketch is available on most of zazzles customisable products.

I am very impressed with the personalised fabric I received. I am making a cot quilt for my beautiful granddaughters 1st birthday. Her mother lives ladybugs so this is perfect. I could pick the font as well. Being able to pick what font you wanted was a big bonus. Looks great in my eyes

I bought this fabric to make some homewares for a Citroen fanatic. Hit the spot perfectly. Quality base fabric and the car graphics are well done. Great printing, colours as I expected. I did not a border of unprinted fabric around the graphics which didn’t worry me but may affect some. The graphic does not spread from selvedge to selvedge.
