Luna
Moon pendant with tiny Garnet.
4 x 3.5 cm
The moon with its points turned down, also known as lunice, is one of the oldest Slavic protective symbols. It was worn mainly by women as an amulet of fertility, protection, intuition and connection with the natural cycles of nature. It represented feminine power, wisdom passed down through generations and a deep connection with the rhythm of the Moon.
Garnet is a group of minerals that are formed deep in the earth's crust under high temperatures and pressures. It is best known for its deep red color, which resembles hot embers hidden under the surface of the Earth. Thanks to its hardness, durability and radiant shine, garnet has been one of the most popular gemstones for millennia. It is a symbol of the power of nature, which is born in the depths and persists through time.
The combination of garnet and Slavic lunice creates a piece of jewelry with a deep symbolism of strength, protection and life energy. Garnet represents courage, perseverance and fire hidden in the heart of the Earth, while moonstone symbolizes feminine wisdom, intuition and connection with the natural cycles of life.
The construction of the jewelry is handmade from surgical steel and the connecting material is an alloy of tin and silver. The jewelry is then treated similarly to silver - we polish it once in a while. The more the jewelry is worn, the better, it polishes itself on the clothes, the skin of the wearer, etc. The metal is permanent and completely nickel-free and free of heavy metals. The jewelry can be worn constantly, even in water, but after that it is good to use and care for it more often. The jewelry is hung on a braided, cotton cord and secured with a knot.
