“Hyacinthia”
$45.00
Description
One of a kind pendant necklace with black enameled bezel, cable chain, and lobster clasp closure.
Featuring a rounded howlite cabochon, hand glued into the bezel setting♡
Howlite is believed to be a stone of awareness and calming. It is thought to help the user to break through confusion and clutter of the mind. For this reason, it has been recommended to be used when one may feel they could be susceptible to becoming angry or anxious, believing that it can absorb these negative energies.
This necklace is also named "Hyacinthia" after both the flower and in honor of mythology. The hyacinth flower has been said to represent peace. In addition, the story behind Hyacinthus is tragically poetic. Being written as a handsome prince and hero depicted in Greek mythology who fell in love with Apollo. He is seen as a tutelary being serving as a mythological protector. There is more than one telling of the tale. As the myth goes, he was killed during a game of discus. Either by his or Apollo's own clumsiness or even vengefully in an act of jealousy, by Zephyrus' intervention. Ultimately Hyacinthus was struck in the head with the discus itself. Due to Apollo's deep love for Hyacinthus, he did not allow his soul to be taken to the underworld ruled by Hades, and in turn decided to transform him into the hyacinth flower.
For the association of the white hyacinth flower with peace and the immortalization of the protector Hyacinthus as the hyacinth, the name "Hyacinthia" feels perfectly fitting for this creation.
May this howlite pendant necklace bring the wearer the power of peace, protection, focus, and clarity.♡
