Bear Pendants

The bear is an animal that has aroused fascination and reverence in humans since prehistoric times, as evidenced by the numerous cave paintings discovered. Perhaps for this reason, the bear is also one of the most important animal spirits in shamanism: in some cultures, it represented one of the shaman's fundamental guides.

The Bear is a symbol of balanced protection and strength, introspection, and motherhood in its purest and wildest essence. It can help us define and enforce our personal space, welcome and protect ourselves and those we love, and retreat into the "dream cave" to transform and emerge renewed.

The stars engraved on the front of the pendant represent the constellation Ursa Major.

On the back, you can choose to have "Ursa Major" (the Latin name for the constellation), "Protect" (meaning protection for you and nature), or no words at all.

Material: brass, cadmium and nickel free.
To maintain its shine, simply wipe a few drops of brass cream over a microfiber cloth (included) every now and then, or soak the jewel in a warm salt and vinegar solution for 15 minutes and then rub it with the cloth.

The dimensions of each pendant are approximately: 3 x 1.5 cm.

Each pendant comes with a gold-plated steel chain (approximately 45 cm long) and a handmade clasp. If you'd like a longer or shorter chain, please let me know in the order notes!

Each piece will present small differences, which will make it unique, due to the entirely manual processing.

If you would like the pendant in a different metal, go to the "Customizations" page.
