According to Jung, an elephant may be a symbol of the self.
Ganesha, the Hindu elephant god, is the great ‘obstacle remover'. An elephant may represent some power, available within you, to clear away whatever prevents you from achieving your goal.
This elephant is paired with droplets of water as a reminder that there is an ebb and flow to reaching every goal.
The oval is about 1.75” (44mm) wide and thread tiny golden droplets are attached with stainless steel split rings. A 1mm 18” long stainless steel chain with a 2” extender and a lobster clasp finishes the look
Each piece of metal comes to me having lived a previous life--in some cases multiple lives! It is not unusual for the material to sometimes have scuffs, scratches, faded portions, and general wear and tear. If a flawless finish is important to you, please zoom in to the pictures here to look for imperfections that might be distracting for you.
All adaptive reuse pieces come to you neatly displayed on an upcycled card and sustainably wrapped ready for gift-giving.
