GLOBAL DECOR - GREECE

The Greek Key design has its origins in ancient Greece and is their most important symbol.  During the medieval period, the key form was used in many ancient Greek temples, primarily due to their interest in labyrinths.

This motif is also called Meandros or the Hellenic Key, after the Meander River which was twisty and doubled onto itself, giving a symbolic meaning to the key of the eternal flow of life.

The graphic Greek Key design can be used in both modern and classical interiors.  There are numerous products which incorporate this timeless design…you will find it embellishing furniture, rugs, lamps, mirrors, and fabrics.
