Goddess Diana Necklace with Opals and Citrine

This captivating statement necklace features an intricate depiction of the Roman goddess Diana, adorned with a crescent moon crown and surrounded by stars, tenderly reaching out to a yellow bird. The image is sourced from Matthäus Merian the Elder's hand-colored copperplate engraving in Historia Naturalis, published in Amsterdam in 1657 under the supervision of John Jonston. This work reflects the 17th-century fascination with natural history and mythology, showcasing Merian's exceptional engraving skills.

Diana, revered as the goddess of the hunt, the moon, and nature, embodies independence, strength, and a deep connection to the natural world. Her association with the moon and the wilderness highlights her role as a protector of women and the environment.

The pendant is elegantly stitched with faceted opals, gemstones believed to inspire creativity and amplify one's intentions, resonating with Diana's dynamic and multifaceted nature. A faceted onion-cut citrine drop, known as the "merchant's stone," is added to attract prosperity and success, complementing the necklace's themes of growth and abundance. The adjustable 16-18" sterling silver chain ensures a perfect fit, making this piece a harmonious blend of art, mythology, and the metaphysical properties of its gemstones.

Embrace the spirit of Diana with this unique necklace, celebrating the divine feminine and the beauty of the natural world.

Cherish your Folkloric Jewelry with a touch of tender care to maintain its magic and charm. Our pieces are handcrafted using decoupage techniques and sealed to protect the artistry, though they should not be worn in water, such as showers or swimming pools, to preserve their beauty. Sterling silver elements may develop a patina over time and can be revived with a simple polish. Our bronze chain necklaces are treated with a non-tarnishing solution, but to avoid possible reactions with sweat, it's best not to wear them during intense activities. Remember, any small imperfections are part of the unique handcrafted nature of each piece.
