The Ariadne Necklace is inspired by Minoan mythology. Ariadne's string is a fine curb chain ushered through the double bail of the geometric pendant. The Minoan princess used this string to guide her beloved through the labyrinthine catacombs below the palace of Knossos. A journey of redemption illuminated by baguette cut peridot, providing a metaphoric light at the end of the tunnel. The Ariadne Necklace offers hope, guiding us through the fathomless corridors of our inner labyrinth. Peridot has been used in jewelry by the ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans who revered this gemstone as a symbol of the Sun. Peridot radiates feelings of inner warmth, well-being, and positivity.
