This is a pendant made with a gorgeous Eye of Shiva cabochon. With the wrapped patinated copper bail/setting it is approximately 54mm / 2.1 inches long.
Also known as “Pacific Cats Eye” the Shiva Eye Shell comes from a specific type of Snail found off the coast of Thailand. Named after the Hindu God, Shiva, the shell represents the Third Eye found in many depictions of the God. Folklore suggests Shiva Eye Shells are “Mermaids’ Money” and good luck to travelers and fishermen.
The Shiva Eye shell has a number of meanings associated with it. Eyes in general are a symbol of protection as to ward off the “Evil Eye”. Coming from the sea, this shell has ocean-like soothing, comforting and serene vibes and will bring peace of mind and relaxation. The Spiral shape has great significance as well, representing the Golden Ratio.
The pendant will arrive in either a gift box or a small gift bag, depending on size, and comes with a necklace. Generally, we have 18" waxed cord necklaces (black and multiple earthy colors), 18" silver-tone, 18" bronze-tone and 20" silver-tone. If you have a preference for packaging or necklace, please indicate this in the comments section of your order. Otherwise, we will choose the option we feel best suits the pendant.
