Here we go again...The necklace I just couldn't part with.


This necklace started out as a DEFINITE ETSY ITEM !

I invested so much time finding the perfect turquoise stones to use with the Egret pendant and I wanted the necklace to define Balance in Nature.

I researched the symbolism of the Egret...took the photos...wrote the text...

But each time I picked up the necklace and thought of the symbolism of the Egret...I loved it more and more - done deal - it's mine...but I just had to share it with y'all...

If you're interested - here is the Egret symbolism info I found...

Native American… The Egret is recognized as a symbol of wisdom.

Chinese… The Egret defines strength, purity, patience and long life.

Egyptian… A double headed Egret is symbolic of prosperity.

According to Animal-Water-Totems, the Egret is known for working with the elements of Mother Nature rather than struggling against her.


See what I mean? How could I not love this necklace once I understood the symbolism of the Egret?

  7. Sandy, if I did not know better, I would say you make these necklaces for yourself in the first place...I would I know.
    It's precious...just lovely.

    That is why I made such a lousy "antique dealer"...I could not part with most of the stuff I bought for my booth.
