A nymph is a spirit of nature depicted in the form of a beautiful maiden, who inhabits lakes, rivers, forests, mountains, and so on. If you have a love of nature, you might identify with nymphs and their desire to immerse themselves in the beauty of the natural world. Neither mortal nor fully divine, nymphs nevertheless have a certain magical quality that makes them similar to fairies.
Our nymph piece features gold round milgrain detail and a 2.5mm moonstone cabochon as a stunning focal point.
As defined in Greek mythology, a chimera is a fire-breathing female monster with a lion's head, a goat's body, and a serpent's tail. She represents all that is illusory or impossible, and challenges humans to try to picture the Divine in a physical form. You might identify with a chimera if you feel that you are more than just the sum of your parts.
Our chimera piece features a brilliant cut 1.5mm diamond in a bezel setting, gold round milgrain detail, and open negative space that highlights the design further.
Sirens are dangerous and alluring creatures who famously led sailors to become shipwrecked with their hypnotic voices and songs. In The Odyssey, Odysseus tied himself to the mast of his ship so he would not steer it off course when the sirens coaxed him with their music. A modern depiction of a siren may be a woman who is irresistible to others, a bit mysterious and hard to get, and never takes no for an answer.
Our beautiful siren piece features a 1.25mm brilliant cut diamond in a thin bezel setting and gold round milgrain detail along the frame.
If you identify with the sphinx, you are most likely a no-nonsense type who does not suffer fools gladly. In Greek mythology, the sphinx is a female monster with the head of a woman, the haunches of a lion, and the wings of a bird. In the myth of Oedipus, she is merciless, killing those who cannot answer her riddles. In contrast, the Egyptian sphinx was depicted as male and far more benevolent. However, both were associated with guardianship and placed at entrances to temples. Wear this necklace close to guard your heart.
Our sphinx piece includes a 2.5mm brilliant cut diamond in a thin bezel setting and negative space utilized to draw the eye directly to the design.
