Christopher Columbus also wrote that he had seen mermaids on his journey to the new world, but thought they would be more attractive. His Sea Log quoted that the mermaids came to the ship but they were “not as pretty as they are depicted”.Surely he could not be referring to the beautiful creatures of lore that we have some to know!

Collectible Stacker Ring with Mermaid

If we are lucky enough here on Cape Cod, or any Coastal area, a sand dollar may wash up on the beach. With its delicate form and celestial design, it is surely a sight to behold. But there is also a religious myth behind the sand dollar.

“The Legend of the Sand Dollar” has many different adaptations, but here are a few symbolic explanations for the design of the sand dollar.

18K Gold Ornate Sand Dollar Pendent

*the sand dollar is said to tell of Christ’s suffering and glory

* The Five Pointed star gracing the front of the sand dollar is said to represent the Star of Bethlehem.

18K Gold Sand Dollar Pendant

* The Poinsetta shaped design on the back of the shell is said to remind us of Christmas, Christ’s Birthday

*If you break the sand dollar open, 5 dovelike pieces appear, they are said to represent peace and good will. Go to Qualityshells.com for more information and a version of the poem.

Gold Humanity Bracelet

In Our “Reason for the Season” post, we talked about the humanity bracelet’s ability to inspire others. But who is the man behind the original virtues emblazoned across the humanity bracelet?

Sterling Silver Humanity Bracelet

The Humanity Bracelet was inspired by Edwin Markham, a published poet, educator and social leader from Oregon. He is most well known for his poem “Lincoln, the Man of the People“  (courtesy of Bartleby.com) which he read at the opening of the Lincoln Memorial.

Wagnerpedia.com  explains that Markham’s humanitarian efforts were ”motivated by a profound passion for social justice and universal human rights”.

The Humanity bracelet line  combines compassion for human kind and wearable art. The classic design was created for unisex appeal and comes in a variety of finishes.

The Crystal Pineapple offers Sterling Silver, Gold and Pewter Humanity Bracelets in several sizes. Wear this simple, stunning, humanity bracelet to remind you of the universal virtues of humanity.

White Gold Heart Pendant with Diamonds

Today I heard an advertisement suggesting that men should buy women cell phones for valentine’s day. Where, I ask, is the romance in this gesture?

Giving a Heart Pendant means more than giving diamonds, sterling silver or even gold. The story of the heart symbolism hearkens back to myths of old and cultural customs in times past.

According to Gemaffair.com,

“The earliest recorded evidence of a Valentine’s Day card came from Charles, Duke of Orleans in 1415. He was captured during the Battle of Agincourt and was held in the infamous Tower of London. He wrote a love letter to his wife from the Tower”. Now that’s a Valentine’s Day story with heart!

Yellow Gold Abstract Heart Pendant with Diamonds

Bellaonline also adds this sentiment: “In addition to love, the heart symbolizes the soul and the center of emotion and consciousness”.

Heart Pendants were even worn by entombed Egyptian mummies to provide the mummified soul with re-newed energy in his/her afterlife.

According to Budge E. Wallis’s The Mummy: A Handbook of Egyptian Funerary Archaeology,  mummies wore “gold beaded necklaces” that often had ”a centre pendant in the form of a heart” (page 267). 

In Irish Culture, the Claddagh ring(with its signature hands holding a heart)often replaces the traditional wedding ring.

There are many ways to give your heart without over spending. Check out The Crystal Pineapple’s line of stylish yet affordable Sterling Silver Heart Pendants with Diamond and Ruby accents.

When December rolls around, it’s time to bring our Christmas accents out of hiding.

When I was a little girl I loved all the decorations, but I cherished my mother’s Holiday Inspired Jewelry. Recently, I looked through my old jewelry box and found one of my mother’s holiday earrings from so many years ago.

For twelve years I’ve kept this one red, rather tarnished glass ornament earring because it reminds me of the many wonderful Christmases spent by the fireside with my family.
