Hephaestus is the Greek god of blacksmithing and fire and is married to Aphrodite, goddess of love. A myth says that when he was a baby, because he was small and ugly, he was thrown from Olympus by his mother Hera. He fell into the Okeanos, a mighty river, and was saved and raised by two sea nymphs. They also taught him the blacksmith's trade. As grown up, he sent his mother a golden throne. When Hera sat on it, she was bound and could not be freed. Set contains Hephaestus with hammer and anvil, blacksmith's tongs, shovel and shield.
