Silver Labyrinth Necklace

Labyrinths are mazes or winding pathways leading to a sacred center. When you walk a labyrinth you do so in a quiet, meditative state. This helps open the soul and foster unity and wholeness. It is a symbol of the spiritual journey into ones soul and back into the world and dates back thousands of years. Labyrinths were an integral part of many cultures and religions because they define sacred space.

The most famous labyrinth is the one depicted on the floor of the Chatres Cathedral in France. The labyrinth carved into this amulet was found on a coin from the Island of Crete and dates back 3,500 years. Crete was known as a matriarchal, peace-loving culture that worshipped nature.

This Silver Labyrinth Amulet bead is handmade of fired clay, with the labyrinth design pressed into the wet clay, after firing, many layers of fine silver are applied and the piece is fired again. The bead is a full 3D piece with the design and silver extending all the way around. Can be polished and buffed just like sterling silver.

Beads are approx 2" long with a 3-4mm hole. Bead shapes and design will vary slightly as these are all handmade.
