Serpentine Amulet
Handcrafted in sterling silver and set with a natural citrine, this amulet rests on a brass chain necklace. The pendant is substantial in presence, shaped and detailed entirely by hand, with organic irregularities that echo the feel of an ancient object unearthed from another time.
This amulet depicts the ancient Minoan snake goddess of Crete, a symbol of the powerful, intuitive essence of women from a time before patriarchy took root. She represents a spirituality that transcends cultures, a reminder that the strength and wisdom of women are universal. In her connection to the earth, the snake goddess embodies transformation, cycles of life, and the kind of wisdom that comes from being deeply attuned to nature.
More than just jewelry; it’s a tribute to the women who lived in harmony with the earth, to the intuitive power that’s always been there, waiting to be reclaimed.
Only one Serpentine Amulet exists. It is the result of years of returning to the piece, refining its form, adding detail after detail, and allowing the design to evolve over time. Every element was shaped slowly by hand, requiring long hours of focused labor that could never be repeated in the same way again. This is not simply jewelry; it is a sculptural work of art, a collectible object made for someone who values intention, rarity, and craftsmanship. It is meant to be cherished and passed down through generations.
Care
To preserve the piece, wear and handle with care. Avoid contact with salt water, chlorinated water, perfumes, oils, and harsh chemicals. Remove the necklace before sleeping, bathing, or exercising, and store it gently in its box or pouch to prevent scratching or strain on the chain. Silver and brass naturally deepen in tone over time and can be brightened with the polishing cloth provided. For deeper cleaning, a gentle jewelry solution may be used with care, avoiding contact with the citrine gemstone. With mindful handling, it will remain a personal relic to be treasured for years to come.
