Christ Is My Light
An exceptional hand carved intaglio featuring imagery of a crest with an owl and Latin motto ‘Lux mea Christus’ (Christ is my light)
Why we love it
The Latin phrase ‘Lux mea Christus’ is often associated with Catholic schools and religious institutions.
The owl, symbolic of wisdom and knowledge, in combination with the phrase may be seen as a way of expressing faith and the pursuit of knowledge
