Tanners' Hares

Richard Ballantyne £400.00

The three hares is a circular motif appearing in sacred sites from East Asia, the Middle east and the churches of Devon. Some claim the Devon name Tinners' Rabbits is related to the tin mines. The mines generated wealth in the region and funded the building and repair of churches and thus the symbol may have been used as a sign of the miners' patronage.
