- Goddesses who personify beauty and grace

Brief Bio

The Charites, also known as the Graces, were three goddesses in Greek mythology representing charm, beauty, and grace.  They weren't powerful in the way of Zeus or Hera, but their influence was pervasive.  They presided over festivals, dances, and celebrations, embodying the joyful and beautiful aspects of life. 

They have little independent mythology, usually described as attending various gods and goddesses, especially Aphrodite. Their presence ensured that events were attended by a certain elegance and delight, adding a touch of magic and beauty to every occasion.  They were often depicted together, representing the harmonious blending of beauty and grace.
