Following the Sun
Sunset Citrine
Safe Travels Necklace

Striking off in a new direction, following the sun. This is an early woven compass rose design. Our ancestors departed their European shores and ventured out across the Atlantic to America. Heading west is often our destiny too.

This compass is woven ribbons of silver north, south, east, west, through which a silver circle flows. Set with a glowing amber-yellow 6mm citrine. The sunset citrine’s pure honey color will always be with her to warm her heart and remind her of the family hearth at home. Ideal for a graduating daughter to guide her safely to new destinations, new lands, and new possibilities. Worn on an 18-inch silver chain places this promise of a great new future two inches from her heart.

Those Who Venture Forth
Following the Sun
Are the Brave Adventurers
Of Our Species

There was the vast ocean our European ancestors looked out upon, the golden sunset in the west of that blue sea. Who could resist the temptation to see what might lie beyond? What new lands, new people, new civilizations, new opportunities were out there just over the horizon. Thousands thought it. The Vikings were the first to sail out to take a look. Then, a gutsy guy called Columbus, 500 years later, did it again and discovered a new world.

If you have a young lady about to set out on an adventure to discover what the world has to offer, she is indeed following the sun. The gem is a golden citrine, the design is a woven compass. When you give this piece, you are bestowing your blessing on her journey and wishing her great and grand adventures in her exploration of life.
