This necklace is intended to be a protective talisman. The pendant shape is similar to a shield. A deep red garnet is at the top of the shield with a brass crescent moon framing the lower part of the gem. Garnets are said to protect travelers on their journeys. A finely detailed dragon is flying toward the moon. Throughout time, dragons have starred in the myths, legends, and fantasies of most cultures - from East to West. It's majestic figure graces palaces, and decorates shields and weapons. Some consider dragons benevolent spirits, linked to wisdom and a long life. Whatever you journey, this pendant will protect and guide you through any uncertainty or turbulence. The pendant hangs on a delicate 14k gold filled curb chain 18" long.
