Lenox Spice Village Thyme House
The Thyme House from the Lenox Spice Village Collection, rendered in needlepoint with the nostalgic cottage details that have made these ceramic houses beloved for decades. This canvas is part of an ongoing series — each house is available individually, or they can be collected together to create a full village display.
The ancient Greeks burned thyme as incense in their temples, believing its fragrant smoke carried courage. The word itself may derive from the Greek thumos, meaning "spirit" or "smoke."
