14ct yellow gold, lacquer enamel, including a detachable clasp.

Who doesn’t love star gazing, the captivating sense of an abundant universe beyond our earthly boundaries, so close but in reality millions of light years away, perhaps already spent. Self generated radiance created by trillions of nuclear reactions, the star is the ultimate alchemical symbol, drawing on earth, fire, air and water in its creation.
No wonder then that the star held symbolic relevance for early pagan religions, the hexagram forming the structure of ritual space wherever it was marked out. Drawing on the earth’s surface the symbol that most powerfully represented the skies above, it created a container for everything that exists.
In alchemical study, the upright triangle symbolized water, the inverted triangle fire, and together they described the harmony between the opposing elements. This sense of harmony is what makes star gazing so powerful, and has made the hexagram a mediation tool for Buddhists for centuries. In Hinduism it is a symbol of the goddess Lakshmi—the goddess of fortune - implying that the balance of earth and sky is the foundation of abundance.
In turn, this mirrors its meaning in Islam, where the hexagram refers to a central marking on the Seal of Solomon, a ring believed to have been given to King Solomon from God, where the star’s two triangles represent heaven and earth. A symbol that has become such a potent emblem of Judaism since the 14th century also adorns the walls of mosques as well as synagogues around the world.
Decorated here with a Rainbow of our classic Tile leheria, our ‘Wish Upon A Star’ pendant sprinkles the beauty of a fleeting refraction of light across one of the world’s most ancient magical symbols.
The charm is shipped with a connector which can attach freely to your own chains, or a chain with 3 or 5 enamel links can be purchased here, and with additional connectors here.
