Despite being separated by continents and centuries, Loki and Coyote share common
traits as "tricksters" in the tales they inhabit, using magical transformative
powers to impart knowledge, challenge social order and trick the unwary. Carl Jung used archetypes
as descriptions of human psychology, and Joseph Campbell used archetypes
to identify our common mythology and storytelling. Some dismiss archetypes as
consolidations of prejudice perpetuated by oppressive hierarchies, much like fairy tales
or morality stories that served to chasten those straying outside social conventions.
Patterns of dark and light, opaque and translucent, and large and small are found in these
15" and 32" companion necklaces. Translucent opal rondelles are spaced with
delicate Miyuki glass seedbeads, mixed with pale blue dyed quartz and opaque
deep blue lapis lazuli. Rough and smooth, dark and light, long and short:
the contrast of opposites are like the simple characters pulled from old tales.
The short necklace has a sterling silver magnetic clasp and may be doubled
as a bracelet, and even the longer necklace with a sterling silver lobster
claw clasp can be a multi-wrap bracelet.
