Aphrodite: Goddess of Love Necklace
Style #:
X4297
Both the Greeks and the Romans had a goddess of love. The Greeks started it. The Romans thought it was such a good idea they copied the concept. Imagine our government putting a goddess on our coinage and not dead presidents. Imagine if the change you carried in your pocket depicted goddesses and exotic wild animals like a lion, an owl or the winged horse Pegasus. Imagine if a pocket full of change in silver and gold was museum beautiful. It might hold you back from spending all those beautiful coins.
We borrowed an ancient coin from 300 B.C. and captured both the front and back images. The denomination was a tetradrachm. It was serious money back then, equivalent to 4 days wages. Our piece is now jewelry. The original was a coin minted in Cnidus today, Knidos Turkey, then. You can visit the actual city in Turkey. The ancient city was abandoned in 700 A.D. due to earthquakes.
The city of Knidos is located on a peninsula off of Turkey which divides the Aegean from the Mediterranean. The city of Knidos was built to honor Aphrodite. Knidos holds some of the best Greek architecture in the world with miles of Roman temples and columns.
The medallion is beautiful. On the front is a profile view of Aphrodite the goddess of love wearing earrings and a pearl necklace. Aphrodite was the ancient Greek goddess of love, beauty, pleasure, and passion. On the reverse side is an image of a lion roaring. A symbol of power. The medallion and 18 inch chain are sterling silver.
Why We Love This Necklace
The goddess of love, Aphrodite, is made in exquisite detail filling the front fully. The disk is solid and heavy. It has a nice feel in the hand. The reverse side shows a lion crouching. The lion is fierce. You can wear this piece showing either side, according to your mood. And yes, Aphrodite is wearing earrings and a pearl necklace, an added bonus to this piece.
Wear this and you join the empire of love.
Wear this and you possess unlimited power.
Wearing this necklace and you embody pure passion.
