Item Description

This necklace is perfect for the Queen Bee in your life!

The sterling silver Bee Amulet Pendant honors the iconic creature that the ancient Minoans revered as a symbol of the Divine Feminine.  The pendant is made by lost wax casting and is part of a whole bee-inspired collection created by the owner of the store who recently became a beekeeper. Now, more than ever, the need to respect and support honeybees has become a worldwide imperative.

Paired with a traditional silver baht chain from Thailand, this necklace evokes the finest elements of nature and antiquity. A baht is a unit of measurement in Thailand; in fact, their money is named after it. Thai people used to measure their wealth by the amount (bahts) of precious metals that they possessed.

This beautiful and symbolic piece comes in the presentation box pictured.

Chain measures approx 19" and pendant is approx 1 1/8"H x 3/4"W

The Golden Eye in downtown Santa Fe has been creating spectacular jewelry for nearly thirty years.  Built upon the vision of master jeweler, Norah Pierson, The Golden Eye melds influences from Mediterranean culture, Egyptian imagery and African motifs to create distinctive pieces that impart a timeless feel.

At the Golden Eye we are long time listeners and under writers. Our favorite show on KUNM is the call-in show on Thursday mornings.
