The double axe or labrys was a recurrent motif in the art and jewellery of the Minoans. It especially associated with priestesses, and to find a labrys in the hands of a Minoan woman indicated that she held a powerful position within this colourful, artistic and sophisticated culture, which flourished on Crete and on Santorini ca 2700-1500 BC.

The labrys today is a symbol of feminist strength, strong women, and of the kinship of lesbian women around the world.

They are all made in Greece in the workshop of the Lioulias family, with whom It's All Greek is proud to have been working since 2004.

The vases themselves are manufactured in Greece, the images are then applied by transfer, before being painted by hand.
