Butterfly Wings 16" Heavy Belcher Pave Sister Hook Necklace

Description
Handcrafted in 18K Yellow Gold, this 16" Oversized Belcher Chain Choker can be worn alone or with an added pendant on the Sister Hooks. This includes the Butterfly Wings medallion. The butterfly is a symbol of the soul, the essence of a person, the light of which cannot be extinguished. Butterflies are the most visual example of metamorphosis, which is based on the Latin root word “Meta” meaning change, after, beyond, between. The choker is composed of our heavy belcher chain and anchored to the chain are pave sister hooks that fit perfectly intertwined with each other.

The name “Sister Hook” describes a pair of hooks fitted together so that one hook makes the other hook more secure. It’s often used when describing the button hooks on Victorian watch fobs. However, Anything that reminds us of “sisters” in the literal sense, or “sisterhood” is a friend of ours.

This necklace can be converted to wear in 2 different ways:
1. 16" continuous
2. Wrapped bracelet

Reverie

This piece is derived from the Reverie Tenet. Floating between reality, fantasy, and memory. Connect our conscious and unconscious. Seek out what lights us up. Seek what gives us energy. Elevated positive energy is the catalyst of change that allows us to reconnect and align with our souls to create joy. These symbols evoke, rather than just describe, Joy.

Spade

The spade represents the idiom "in spades". It's the energy catalyst, the initiator.

Butterfly

This butterfly is meant to celebrate the soul and what gives our life meaning. In celebration of our own soul’s search for the light of our life purpose, like the Myth of Psyche in Greek mythology, following her bliss. Aligning and Re-connecting with our Soul; the absolute, undeniable, irrevocable connection with our essence. They can represent the defiant shout that our soul is ours alone to fuel and fire.

It also celebrates the souls we cherish and keep close to us: a soul mate, our children, our parents. It is cathartic when grieving the loss of a beloved soul. It honors the birth of a new soul. In friendship, in love, in grief, in joy, for what is a soul but the metamorphosis of the individual from the divine; the beyond, between, and the after of everything this life encompasses. There is an end to life, but not of love.

Triple Butterfly Triskele

The three butterflies together represent three winged souls of inspiration: Mneme (memory), Aiode (Music) and Melete. Melete is harder to define-if you look up that ancient Greek word you’ll see many translations: practice/occasion/dance/ritual. But, I see it as that “thing” that is particular to you that gets you into the flow where time has no end and anything is possible. Whatever that “thing” is to you-drawing, meditation, art… It’s the “thing” that allows you to find yourself. To feed yourself. That’s Melete. Together those winged souls of inspiration: Music, Memory and “your thing”… Will incite you to daydream, to create, to celebrate, to feel the rapture of being ALIVE.
