Lapis Lazuli, Sun Disc Pendant

The deep blue of Lapis Lazuli was a potent symbol of life to the Ancient Egyptians and even today it holds powerful associations with truth, wisdom and enlightenment. I wanted to capture that kind of symbolism with this pendant with the wire wrap in gold coloured silver plated wire. The addition of blue dyed faceted quartz on the bail adds to the Egyptian feel. 
 
The pendant diameter is 4cm and it hangs from a triple strand of navy cord finished with a gold plated nickel free clasp. 
 
Comes to you wrapped in tissue in an organza bag along with information about the gemstone and tips on Caring for Your Gemstone Jewellery.
