In the Zen story A Parable, a man flees from a tiger by grabbing a vine and jumping over a precipice only to be confronted with another tiger below him, also waiting to eat him. As he considers the tiger above and the tiger below, he spots a strawberry growing on the vine - how sweet it tasted! The analogy of strawberry:tiger::life:death refers to the sweetness of the moment, of life in the face of our certain demise. The pendant is sterling silver with a resin coating over the paper for protection from wear and weather; note that submerging the pendant could lead to discoloring.

Cost: $46.00 USD
