Sterling Silver Sacred Spiral Necklace
“YOU ARE ALWAYS ONE DECISION AWAY FROM A TOTALLY DIFFERENT LIFE.”
Cave art jewellery. Hand-forged sterling silver “sacred spiral and cross” pendant necklace, on a long 27″ sterling silver chain.
The talisman pendant, including loop section, measures just under 2″ tall. The imprint of a petroglyph sacred spiral and cross is etched deep into the silver. The pendant has been lightly oxidised, hammered and distressed for an aged look.
This is an elegant yet rugged piece, perfect for wearing alone or layering with other necklaces. A substantial, tactile piece, it hangs from a lightly oxidised 27″ long sterling silver chain. At this length, and with no clasp, it can be easily put on over the head – perfect for when you’re in a hurry. All loops have been soldered closed for strength and durability, and the slightly heavier chain makes this great for both men and women.
Spirals are one of the oldest geometric shapes found at petroglyph sites globally. People throughout the world carved the same symbol in rocks and caves, despite having no communication with each other. It appears to have universal meaning and significance, which is understandable seeing how the spiral is fundamental to nature. You can see them on snail shells, seashells and in natural phenomena such as whirlpools, hurricanes, tornadoes and in galaxies above. The spiral is a powerful symbol for creation, change and growth. It represents the journey of life as it unfolds, and is a reminder of the constant change and flow of our lives.
Wear it when you need to make peace with change, and to remind you to open your heart to new beginnings, as that way magic lies.
Part of my “Warriors & Relics” collection, inspired by ancient petroglyphs, talismans and totems. Elegant yet rugged pieces that could have been forged in fires thousands of years ago and only recently unearthed. These pieces represent strength and endurance, not just in the physical realm, but an inner strength to keep you focused forward to where you need to be.
Designed and lovingly created in my studio in Moray, Scotland.
I work in sterling silver, ancient bronze, copper and brass, with natural semi-precious gemstones. I make pieces which are perfect for layering together, mixing and matching, so you can grow your collection and choose your pieces according to your mood, or the inspiration you want to gain that day.
Each piece is unique. Whilst I may create similar pieces, as every piece is made individually by hand, no two will ever be the same. I am registered with Edinburgh Assay Office for precious metal work.
