Joie de Vivre jewelry

In ancient Egypt, Ma'at was balance, justice, and cosmic haramony represented by a young goddess with a feather. When an Egyptian died, Anubis weighed their heart against Ma'at's feather, which determined how closely the person had lived according to Ma'at's principles and whether would suffer in the belly of Ammit or gladden in the fields of Aaru. This 20" multistrand gemstone necklace achieves balance in color and scale, through midnight blue iolite and golden yellow orange spessartite garnet gemstones. The innermost and outermost strands feature faceted iolite gemstones with golden glass pearls, and the middle strand features the warm garnet gemstones. Sterling silver spacers keep the strands together, and the necklace fastens easily with a large sterling silver locking hinge and open sterling silver chain. Sterling silver gemstone 1" drop earrings with lapis lazuli and faceted blue topaz complement the necklace. The pieces may be purchased separately or together for a small savings.

Cost: $245.00 USD (necklace), $45.00 USD (earrings), $275.00 USD (both)
