Fertility, birth and procreation
Shells conjure up the waters in which they are formed and share the fertility symbolism which belongs to the element of water.
In shape and depth, they are symbols of female sexuality, while the fact that they sometimes contain pearls may perhaps have inspired the legend of the birth of Aphrodite, rising from a shell.

Care
SISTER jewellery is made of 24k Gold-plated 925 Sterling Silver. Gold plating naturally wears off over time, revealing the silver beneath. Avoid contact with fragrances, lotions, rough surfaces and cleaning agents, especially chlorine as it can permanently damage or discolour your jewellery. Make sure your skin is dry before putting on your jewellery. Always remove your gold plated jewellery in the shower, when swimming or exercising and store it in a dry and air-tight place. Clean it gently with a soft cloth only and avoid rubbing. Unlike mass produced jewellery,handmade pieces will almost always have imperfections and each piece will never be identical to another. This uniqueness is part of the beauty of handmade jewellery.
More than 10.000 customers wear Sister jewelry
Each piece has a unique story behind it and is crafted by hand in a family-owned workshop
Customer Reviews
Beautiful pendant with lots of detail! I had previously purchased the smaller shell pendant which is better suited for everyday wear, but looks less dramatic and has not as much detail, which is why I wanted to add the larger pendant to my collection as well. I was unsure if this larger one would be too bulky for my taste, but I will make it work because it looks like a piece of art. However, the connector ring is so tiny that it's difficult to thread a chain through - the ring on the smaller pendant is quite a bit bigger, ironically.
Gorgeous chain. Amazing quality and exactly as described. Thank you! X
