The Siren Collection
Inspired by some of my favorite Greek mythology, the “Siren Collection” is an epic of hand-cast bronze jewelry I hope Hephaestus would approve. Each piece is a symbolic, talismanic nod to a god, goddess or legend. They are handmade with bronze, semi-precious stones, 14K gold-filled chain and ear wires, meaning they’re high quality and carefully crafted. This is the most meaningful collection of handmade jewelry I’ve ever designed, and I hope it speaks to your soul. Maybe you’ll see yourself reflected in the glimmering bronze, or maybe in the stories each piece has to tell.
The Adonis Greek Statue Necklace and Earrings
The Adonis Greek Statue Necklace and Earrings
Adonis possessed otherworldly beauty and was the mortal lover of the goddesses Aphrodite and Persephone. As an infant, the abandoned Adonis was found by Aphrodite and given to Persephone to raise. Then he became a total hottie and the two fought relentlessly over the right to carnally possess him. Zeus eventually got fed up with their feud and mandated that Adonis spend part of the year below ground with Persephone, part of the year with Aphrodite, and the other part with whomever he chose, and of course he chose Aphrodite because he wasn’t brave enough to handle the goth Queen of the Dead Persephone, who probably was into some kinky shit, I’m just saying…
Adonis was gored by a wild boar and died in Aphrodite’s arms, his blood mingling with her tears to create the anemone flower.
The Adonis Necklace and Earrings feature a beautiful face, reminiscent of classical marble sculptures, with bright, dazzling round-cut cubic zirconia stones for eyes. The pendant is handmade of bronze, and the stones are set by hand and cast directly into the metal. The pendants measure a little more than a 1/2 inch across and are accented with round howlite stones, which are reminiscent of marble. The Adonis Necklace chain is 18 inches and 14K gold-filled, and the earrings are made with 14K gold-filled wires, so they’re hypoallergenic. This necklace and earrings set is available in .999 fine silver upon request.
Because of the unique nature of handmade jewelry, each piece of bronze or silver jewelry may have very slight variations. This jewelry is handmade in my North Little Rock, Arkansas, studio.
