This timeless and unique Snake Necklace is a nod to the Greek symbol of Ouroboros depicting the snake eating its own tail. It is a symbol of the constant cycle and recreation of life. The shining pearl represents an egg, the image of the preciousness and fragility of life. The twelve snakes biting each others tail is a humorous allegory of existence. Originally a frightening creature, the cold-blooded serpent is turned into a luxurious, sophisticated, and articulated necklace perfect for any chic outfit.
