"Retour au Foyer"
The threshold has long been seen as a sacred boundary of the home — a point of passage between worlds, offering protection against hostile forces. In ancient folk beliefs, domestic animals embodied this liminal space between life and death.
The horse, believed to carry souls to the afterlife, was linked to household guardian spirits said to braid its mane at night. The rooster, a ward against malevolent spirits, was kept nearby for protection.
The medallion portrays a door marked by a horse and crowned with a rooster, symbolizing protection while inviting a fearless crossing into the unknown.
