I love the color of hemimorphite! It so much reminds me of summer! Together with white shells, pearls, white handmade ceramic beads, tiny sterling silver and crystal ones it makes the absolute summer necklace! Closure is a sterling sterling lobster clasp, while a hammered texture, handmade center piece gives the necklace an ancient greek aura! Its length is approx 35cm adjustable to 39cm and I also demonstrate it as a set with a rolo sterling silver chain.
Euagore was one of the Nereids. In Greek mythology, the Nereids or Nereidesare sea nymphs (female spirits of sea waters), the 50 daughters of the 'Old Man of the Sea' Nereus and the Oceanid Doris, sisters to their brother Nerites. They often accompany Poseidon, the god of the sea, and can be friendly and helpful to sailors (such as the Argonauts in their search for the Golden Fleece). The Nereids symbolized everything that is beautiful and kind about the sea. Their melodious voices sang as they danced around their father. They are represented as beautiful women, crowned with branches of red coral and dressed in white silk robes trimmed with gold. These nymphs are particularly associated with the Aegean Sea, where they dwelt with their father Nereus in the depths within a golden palace.
