Pomegranate Seed - pink bicolor tourmaline and sterling silver ring

In Greece, pomegranate (Greek: ρόδι, rodi) is used in many recipes.
Pomegranate is mentioned in Greek Mythology in the Homeric hymns.
Persephone, the goddess of spring and innocence,
ate pomegranate seeds in Hades and returned to the light of Earth.
Earth then, flourished with vegetation and color.

Tanagrea pendant.

By making this beautiful pendant, I just wanted, on the International Women's Day, to do homage to all the women who fight for the freedom of feminity.
Tanagrea figurines, the statuettes of true beauty and strength, were my inspiration.

The Tanagra figurines are certain Terracotta statues of Hellenistic period which were discovered during excavations at Tanagra of Boeotia.

 

 

The stone calcite gets its name from "chalix" the Greek word for lime.
Its luster is vitreous and is the most amazing mineral because of its extraordinary diversity and beauty!
