SPIRAL SIGN IN TRIBAL DESIGN - HANDMADE FROM ALPACA SILVER * The spiral is probably the oldest symbol of human spirituality. It has been found scratched into rocks from thousands of years ago, on every continent in the world. The religious significance can only be guessed, but it has been found on tombs, and possibly has a connection with the sun- the sun makes a spiral shape every three months in its travels. * A triple spiral motif found on Celtic tombs is drawn unicursally (that is, in one continuous line), suggesting a cycle of rebirth or resurrection. (this hypothesis is bolstered by the fact that many of these appear to be deliberately placed where they catch the first rays of the sun on the solstice). * It is also the symbol of spirit in Wicca, an emblem of the Goddess. * The Amulet comes on an adjustable cotton string and fits all neck sizes. * Handmade pendant polished to perfection * Pendant size: 2.8cm (1.1 inch) wide, 4.5cm (1.8 inch) long * Pendant comes on a 2mm thick cord * Cord is adjustable from 40cm (15.7 inch) to 80cm (31.5 inch) * condition: Brand New * no-questions-asked money back or exchange guarantee! * Alpaca Silver, also known as White Copper was discovered in the 18th century. In 1823 a competition was initiated in creating an alloy that possessed the closest visual similarity to silver. The brothers Henniger in Berlin and A. Geitner in Schneeberg won the competition by creating "white metal" which until now is used in jewellery, cutlery and coins for its corrosion resistance. Nickel-free composite - will not cause allergies! * Makes a great gift!
