Snakes have been worn in jewellery since Egyptian times and throughout history have had many different meanings for the wearer. I see snakes as a symbol of rebirth and regeneration, marking changes and personal growth.

Usually I just stick to very simple shapes and patterns in my jewellery, however I just love the slithering bodies that can be created with sterling silver. Each pair of snakes are bought to life using forming techniques using pliers and hammers. Each pair created are individual. You have the option here of having small white baroque freshwater pearls hanging from the tail, select when ordering. Match them up with the ring or pendant options also available.
