Yasmin Everley Jewellery Leo Astrology Necklace In 9ct Gold
Description
In the Ancient Greek tale, Leo is associated with the first of Heracles' twelve labours, the capture of the Nemean Lion. The Nemean Lion was thought invincible due to its impenetrable hide so Heracles strangled the lion to death and wore its skin as a cloak. Zeus honoured the lion by placing it in the stars. The pendant is formed of a circle - considered to be the most geometrically perfect shape - holding an accurate cluster of the stars which form the constellation, held suspended in space by delicate wire. The chain is a rope chain, reminiscent of both the sailors who have used these stars to navigate through the centuries and our coiling strands of DNA. The Astrology Collection is inspired by the way our interwoven knowledge of science and mythology are inextricably linked to create our personal identities as our stories form our cultural DNA. Even solid gold can become tarnished over time, if this happens the most simple way to restore the necklace is to use Gold Dip, taking care to keep the clasp dry. A polishing cloth may be used on the pendant but is not recommended for the chain as fibers may become caught and pulling the chain repetitively may weaken it.
