Rose Cross

Pendant, floral

This enchanted symbol, an ancient secret of a sacred land, holds the key to magic transformation. It belongs to the mystic Otherworld that lies on the border of the subconscious where shimmering myths shadow reality: The cross shape of the rose cross symbolizes the material plane, and the cycle of death and rebirth. After all in the magic garden of the otherworld the rose cross keeps blossoming forever, each blossom and each thorn expressing perfection and granting eternal youth and immortality of the soul. The rose on the cross furthermore represents the unfolding nature of spiritual growth.

This pendant is made of pewter embellished with silver and enamel. Enamel is a decorative technique in which a glass "paste" is applied to the surface of a metal. This piece of jewelry has been enhanced by adding a silver coating over the pewter core and embellishing details of the design with enamel. Pewter is a shiny, soft metal which is very malleable and has a good tarnish resistance.

This jewelry is also available in gold

We were always fascinated by pieces of jewelry designed according to historical artwork and magical and other old motifs are a main area of our jewelry collection until today. Nowadays we all are surrounded by designs and motifs from all over the world which we usually choose according to visual aspects without considering the original meaning and symbolism of the various depictions. For sure the beauty of the different designs and materials is a good reason for selecting them but the affinity to a special piece of jewelry or art craft can be enhanced if one knows its deeper meaning and its origin. For this reason we always placed value on the accurate representation and information explaining the various pieces of jewelry in our collection.

Jewelry always had various functions which changed during the course of time: Because of the precious materials that were often used for its design it often was a valuable asset and sometime was even used as a currency. But especially in ancient cultures the spiritual meaning of a piece of jewelry was always important and the different motifs were symbols for the affiliation of its wearer to and his status in a social group. Furthermore jewelry can also serve a practical purpose like this is the case with safety pins, belt buckles and brooches.

Since jewelry is such a diverse cultural asset the meaning of a given piece can depend on the point of view and beliefs of its creator. For example many cultures developed pieces of jewelry showing to others whether its wearer is married or single: In our Western world these are the wedding rings while in African countries e.g. special bracelets or necklaces are worn for this purpose. Whether we are talking about weddings jewelry or talismans and amulets that were used for protection - often the decorations and materials determine the symbolic meaning of a piece of jewelry.

Besides the various symbols and designs different cultures use for their pieces of jewelry also a variety of materials are deployed in jewelry production. At the beginning of mankind primarily pearls made of wood and bones and shells were crafted to pendants, since these rather soft materials could easily be processed and were readily available. Later on especially precious metals like gold and silver and various gems were used for valuable jewelry. Today the selection of materials available for the production of jewelry is especially large and various.
