Four circles hold the old alchemical symbols for fire, water, air and earth, arranged around a central wheel that ties them together. These marks were in use long before modern chemistry existed, and they have kept their pull ever since. It makes a good gift for someone drawn to alchemy, astrology or ancient symbolism, for a chemistry student with a sense of humour about their subject, or for anyone who likes jewellery that carries a bit of meaning. The pendant is 925 sterling silver, cut clean throughout. It arrives in our suede gift pouch.
Please choose your finish and chain length at checkout.
Finish options: Sterling Silver, a bright polished finish along every edge of the open work, which keeps each symbol crisp and readable. Gold, 18ct gold plated over 925 sterling silver, for a warmer tone that suits gold jewellery already in the collection.
Chain length options: 14 inches, sits high on the neck, best suited to children and petite frames. 16 inches, sits at the base of the neck, a classic choker length. 18 inches, our most popular length, sits just below the collarbone and works with most necklines. 20 inches, sits on the chest, ideal for layering or wearing over knitwear. 22 inches, a longer drop that sits lower on the chest.
This is a wider pendant and the design is unisex, so 18 inches or above gives it room to sit flat and be seen in full, and 20 or 22 inches suits a wider frame well.
Every order arrives in a Potiega suede gift pouch as standard. If you would like it presented in our white gift box with a gift card, please tick the gift box option at checkout for a small additional charge.
