Protective Goddess Silver and Moonstone Harmony Ball Necklace with Brass
From Sukartini, this silver pendant evokes an ancient lantern decorated with lace. The locket opens to reveal a shining brass sphere. The silver pendant is crowned with moonstone and a long sterling chain completes the lovely necklace. Moonstone is thought a sacred stone of the moon goddess, who is protective of women,
Also called ‘angel necklaces’ and ‘harmony balls,’ Such necklaces are often worn by pregnant women in Bali and also in Mexico. Many wear it as an amulet. Others prefer a long chain that lets the pendant reach to the belly and the delicate sounds are thought to soothe the mother and the baby she is carrying. Some believe it summons a guardian angel, thus making it a symbol of loving protection.
