Legends invite power. Lessons make us wise.
There is a collective mythos whispered across empires and eras, bearing symbols for protection and prosperity, joy-bringers and ego-breakers. Gathered like fables at a grandmother's feet, the lesson of rebirth is one repeated across space and time.
We begin with the Evil Eye.
To adorn oneself with the evil eye is to claim protection against wicked energy, harmful thoughts, and a jealous gaze. It appears in several of our charms, from the more modern approach with an enamel-painted blue iris and golden backdrop to the signet ring marked by a crystal at its center.
Coupled with the freshwater pearl’s attraction to light and wisdom, our evil eye earrings offer the chance to invite luck in, and reject the bad while the Hamsa symbol on our petite necklace meant for layering is rooted in the ancient Middle Eastern myth of Fatima, adopted across religions and cultures as a talisman to ward off the evil eye, and draw in health and abundance.
CICADA TRAPPED IN GOLD
Since ancient times, the cicada has been a symbol of resurrection due to its fascinating life cycle.
Captured in gold, this intricately detailed design adds a spark of mystery to any ensemble—available as earrings in a 14k finish, antiqued gold finish, brooch, or a charm.
Myths of Ancient Egypt
Symbols, Lore & Luxury in gold
The Scarab
Esteemed symbol of the sungod, the Scarab was revered by Ancient Egyptians as a symbol of birth, life, death, and resurrection—a never ending cycle displayed in their quest to roll dung along the banks of the Nile. For as the sun is reborn every morning, so too did they believe their dead might become when marked by the sign of the Scarab beetle— intricate, beautiful, and mysterious in one.
One of our first designs (seen above) depicts a genuine carnelian stone that appears lit from within by sunlight, carved in the motif of a scarab. The same, golden motif is also captured in our Scarab Earrings, glinting gold and holding the same citrine-colored stones as our Coronation Hoop Earrings.
Nekhau Egyptian Fish Pendant
Along the river Nile, Catfish once swam belly-up, a strange behavior replicated first along temple walls, and then crafted by the ancients into pendants of beaten gold. Nekhau amulets (seen below) promised regeneration, gifted to young girls to attach vertically at the end of their intricate braids as a protection against drowning, and a reminder life continues on.
Figa Hand Pendants
The figa sign has been used across cultures to strike messages both playful and powerful, offering protection to all who wear it. This charms made of pale stone holds delicate chains with additional trinkets and jewels.
Rooted in an ancient Lemurian ritual meant to ward off corrupted spirits of the departed, this charm is entirely unique in its design. We invite you to embrace its protection, and adjust it to your style.
Myths of Ancient Greece
jewelry inspired by legend
Forbidden Fruit Charm
To change one’s fate is a precarious thing. There it lingers in front of you, choice wrapped in fruit that’s soft, sweet, and forbidden—a reminder that where light dwells within us, shadows linger also.
Do you dare take the bite?
A hand-shaped charm modeled by our master jeweler with two fingers extended to reach for a peacock freshwater pearl as Eve was said to reach for the apple, or Persephone for the fruit.
Persephone Pomegranate Earrings
Guardian of Spring and an eternal maiden-fair, Persephone dwelt listlessly among flower fields until power and purpose arrived in a choice cloaked by shadow: three pomegranate seeds for three months of darkness, named Queen of the Underworld at Lord Hades’ side.
It is a legend of power sparked by a choice, all contained in the symbol of the ruby-red pomegranate—a lasting motif from the heart of Ancient Greece.
Hand of Midas Necklace
The legend of King Midas is a caution, and a curiosity: a man with the foresight to invite a god into his home, and the foolishness to wish that everything he touches turns to gold.
Inspired by this lore, we crafted a golden hand encased in a circle, caught in an endless loop that may be worn around the throat or wrist as a bracelet.
You can add charms to the thick, rolo chains or the loop where the hand and toggle meet to create a unique feature all your own—or link two Hand of Midas necklaces into a single, golden belt at your waist.
