Daphne Pendant Necklace - Gold

A substantial oval pendant glinting with stones on a delicate rope chain necklace. This pendant is a token of strength in women, a hieroglyph of the Greek nymph, Daphne. Her beauty made her attractive to the god Apollo. When she escaped his lust, her desire for freedom allowed her to transform into a laurel tree, a symbol of Divine Beauty. Rooted into the earth and protected by the stars in the sky, she came to embody victory itself. The Greeks adorned their champions in her image, the laurel branch, as we continue to do to this day.  This story inspired the design - a raised laurel branch beneath a beacon star, a reminder that while we may be grounded in our ability to persevere, we are still guided by the stars. Daphne’s story connects us as sisters, grounded with roots and powerful beyond measure. - choose 16”, 18" or 20" Length with + 2" extender  - mini rope chain and spring ring clasp - 22mm Pendant - Laurel branch and Constellation Star pendant - Cubic Zirconia & White Quartz - 12kt Gold Plated Brass   Shipping All orders ship within five (5) business days of when the order is placed.
