EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Conch Shell from 1923, an exquisite ornament with deep religious significance in both Hinduism and Buddhism. Crafted with meticulous detail, the shell is encased in possibly gold metal and adorned with intricate dragon motifs. This stunning piece of art belongs to a series of WD & HO Wills Cigarette Cards called Lucky Charms, produced in Bristol and London during the 1920s. The conch shell holds great cultural importance across various mythologies and belief systems. In Hinduism, it symbolizes purity, beauty, and the divine sound that created the universe. It is often associated with Lord Vishnu and his conch-shaped trumpet used to awaken spiritual consciousness. Similarly, in Buddhism, the conch represents one of the Eight Auspicious Symbols signifying enlightenment and victory over suffering. As a collectible cigarette card from this era, this print not only captures aquatic life but also embodies concepts such as luck and superstition prevalent during that time period. The vibrant colors bring out its mythical charm while reflecting the artistic style of early 20th-century prints. Preserved by The Print Collector5 at Heritage Images under unknown creatorship alongside WD & HO Wills' name association with it; this remarkable image invites us to appreciate the fusion of religion, mythology, symbolism, and craftsmanship within a single ornamental masterpiece.
