Full description
Handcrafted upon quality silver plated chain the necklace features a Goddess sculpted from Polymer Clay.
Persephone is a Greek Goddess, the Goddess of Spring and the underworld. Wife of Hades and daughter of Demeter.
Narcissus flowers cover her nipples, upon her right thigh is a Pomegranate and 6 seeds and on the other thigh sits a spiral indicating the continually of her time spent in this world and the underworld. There is a Aventurine bead is embedded inside her tummy.
A greek belief is that the Narcissus flower is a symbol of early death. It is also the flower gathered by Pesephone on her way to Hades. The daffodil often associated with spring.
The story surrounding Pesephone is that she was handed a pomegranate by Hades and ate 6 seeds. The pomegranate is a symbol of the indissolubility of marriage, by eating 6 seeds she tied herself to Hades for six months of the year and during this time ruled alongside Hades as the Queen of the underworld.
The remaining 6 months is spent in our world, her return from the underworld heralded spring. Demeter in her joy of her daughters return makes sure the flowers are blooming and crops are growing and the fields are green. Every Autumn, when Persephone returns to the underworld, Demeter ignores the crops and flowers and lets them die as she mourns.
